In this case copying will be more troublesome because you must open the context menu, select Edit > Mark. To fix this you can disable QuickEdit mode if you don't need it. The results are piped into the sort command and sorted on the fifth column of data (which is the filesize). This uses the ls command to list the files in the current directory. Here's an example of QuickEdit mode setting in Windows 8 console: Generally, GUI applications do not allow this type of collaborative interworking. Try opening an app that outputs a lot of data in the highest priority and click the console, the app will still be blocked indefinitely even if the CPU is in idle The console does nothing to change the priority when there are some inputs. ![]() Priority is absolutely irrelevant here because if the buffer is full then the process is blocked forever until you exit mark mode, regardless of the priority. When you press Enter or Esc the selected text will be copied to clipboard and mark mode will be exited, therefore the process will run again. It's very easy to accidentally click the console and stop the command. If quick edit mode is enabled (by default it's disabled in older Windows but enabled in Windows 10) then clicking inside the console window will activate mark mode and result in what you observed In that mode the screen will be frozen, texts will go into the buffer and if the buffer is full the running process will be blocked The other answers are wrong! The Windows console has a separate mode called "mark mode" for selecting text.
