To demonstrate the whole reproducing process, I make a video: https://youtu.be/UD38-wnwGnw

As you can see, I enter my vim with '--clean' flag. No vimrc, no plugins, but it still enter the 'replace mode' automatically. It is so annoying, anyone knows what's going on?

Update: After entered clean vim(with --clean flag, but issue remained), I checked if any unexpected scripts had been executed: Seems nothing special Seems nothing special, everything belongs to official content.

And I also checked my 'vi' command, confirmed that where it comes from: Nothing special neither Nothing special neither, too.

I still have no idea toward this issue.

  • Since it's loaded with --clean you might want to check your defaults.vim file to make sure it hasn't been modified. Also, make sure vi is properly aliased to vim: type -a vi.

    @filbranden Do you want me to verbose the insertmode state AFTER cancel the replace mode and focus to command bar? Of course, it shows 'noinsertmode'.

    @filbranden I have no environment variables such as VIMINIT or EXINIT, though I don't know what they means.

Reset to default

That is a known issue: https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/6951 and https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/6365

As a temporary fix, add set t_u7= to your vimrc.

PS, the issue was introduced by windows terminal and is fixed there.
