Terminal is tiny when extensions create and show them

[SoumadeepChoudhury]

Issue Type: Bug

I am facing an issue with the terminal window in VS Code.
The first time I open the terminal window or I run a program snippet it works seamlessly fine but on the next Run the terminal window freezes( only showing colon at the end of the terminal window and nothing else).
I am facing this problem after the recent update to 1.58 ...
Please fix his problem as soon as possible.

facing even worse issue mine is showing nothing 😥

The very first run is fine.
The second run will be all black (with some texts flashing at the bottom of terminal), and texts can manifest after ctrl++, ctrl+- or switching to other pages and switching to terminal again. If scrolling up, the originally expected texts will show on the top in a weird format (in a row?). So, actually the outputs are printed twice.
Facing this bug after updating to ver.1.58, too

Hey folks, Sam Varghese here. I am also facing this issue after VSCode got updated. I even raised a query at the stack overflow regarding this. Here is a link to the question I raised: https://stackoverflow.com/q/68328179/15446699 From there I came to know that an issue regarding this has been raised, thanks to SoumadeepChoudhury. I have also recorded my screen in order to show the problem I am facing. Here is it:

I use windows 10 and updating VSCode made my terminal behave so weirdly as shown above.

Hope this problem gets sorted out as soon as possible

I too am experiencing this very similar issue since the time I updated my VS Code to version 1.58.0 on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS yesterday, I can't see the terminal content, on top of that, sometimes, I can't kill the terminal using the icon on the terminal's right side.
I am opening and closing the terminal multiple time using CTRL+ ` and reloading VS Code as a workaround to deal with these 2 issues.
