@shimizukawa Could you check this please?

[shimizukawa]

OK, I'll check at this night (just now I don't have Win10 env)

[shimizukawa]

I got it.
@akshaybabloo please try pip install pyreadline to avoid the problem.

Actually, this problem is fixed by #3364 and next version (1.5.3 and 1.6) will be shipped with the fix.

[akshaybabloo]

Yes! That worked thanks.
