Hi @X1aomu

Thanks for your report.

Unfortunately this seems out of our control, but it seems a colorama issue, check: tartley/colorama#218 or tartley/colorama#335

We have seen this issue in other terminals like cmd and cmder with previous Python versions, but it seems with latest Python like 3.10 it is no longer a problem for us. But it seems the issue remains similar for powershell terminals.

To disable colors, there is the $Env:NO_COLOR=1 you can use to disable colors if necessary.

I suggest closing this ticket, as there is little we can do it from here, and track the colorama issues.

Thanks for pointing out the cause. Can close now. Let's reopen this when it is fixed on upstream, to make sure conan get updated.
