Re: Mintty Crash on Exit after SSH on Windows 10

[Bryan Tong <contact@nullivex.com>]

Sorry for the extra replies.

I am going to try to do some more research on the issue. After letting
a mintty window sit open and typing absolutely nothing inside it and
then closing it about 5 minutes later it hangs on exit.

Very strange behavior. Im not seeing it so bad on my other computers
but still intermittent on them.
