This is due to behaviour change of pseudo console itself.
In Win10 20H2 (and perhaps also in 2004),
ENABLE_VIRTUAL_TERMINAL_PROCESSNG is set by default in pseudo
console. However, older Win10 such as 1809, this flag is not
set. Therefore, you need to set this flag explicitly.

Also, in command prompt, this flag is not set even with Win10
20H2. So, I recommend to keep this flag set for portability.
