Description / Steps to reproduce the issue

I'm on win11 pro. Usually, I have like 5-10 msys2 console windows open (for multiple c++ environments). I run sometimes tests in all of them to verify all the shtuff I've done. I noticed interesting behavior that after some time without using these console windows they become "frozen". That is, if I type there, or press Ctrl+C nothing happens. I can select text in the window, I can scroll the window as usual, but it completely ignores any input form the keyboard. If I select text and copy - it works, selected text gets copied. If I try to paste the text into msys2 console with the mouse there is nothing pasted.
I've seen it get locked up this way when I tried to cancel processes with Ctrl+C, right now I have a few of them I didn't use for a few days and half of them are this frozen now.

Expected behavior

console windows shouldn't freeze after they weren't used for a while

Actual behavior

console windows become frozen

Verification

Windows Version

MINGW64_NT-10.0-26100
