When opening cmd.exe or powershell.exe from WSL, Auto-complete (tab key) does not work in the opened cmd/powershell process. It types a tab character instead.

  • My Windows Build Number: 17134.165

  • Tested WSL version: Ubuntu 16.04 and Ubuntu 18.04

  • Expected behavior: Tab key should suggest based on file names on current directory, just like a cmd.exe/powershell.exe opened directly from start menu does.

  • What's happening: Tab key types a \t character on screen instead of auto-completing, when running cmd.exe or powershell.exe from bash.

  • Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a bash Window.

  2. Type cmd.exe (or powershell.exe) and press enter.

  3. Type a character and press tab button.

This is a dupe of a bunch of issues that are all fundamentally fixed by #57, which is already available in Insiders.
