Windows Terminal (Command Prompt) - Linux key mappings not working #670

Description

@Sanofi-EL

I log into an AL2023 EC2 instance via Web Browser, AWS Console.

Key combinations (shortcuts) like "Ctrl + <-" (Left Arrow) and "Ctrl + ->" (Right Arrow) work seamlessly.
So is Home and End buttons.

This is under bash shell. I switch to zsh, there too. All key combinations work.

I log into from Windows Terminal that runs cmd.exe (Command Prompt) with the following command syntax:

aws ssm start-session --target <instance id> --region eu-west-1

Home and End works, but not "Ctrl + <-" (Left Arrow) and "Ctrl + ->" (Right Arrow) (bash).
As switch from bash to zsh nothing works.
