Kitty started to work for me as well. Install all the windows updates and update ConEmu. Then try again.

I have checked, I have all the latest Windows Updates installed, the latest ConEmu version and the latest KiTTY version installed. I still have this issue.

Look. I said more than a time, contact KiTTY authors! Only authors may answer questions about their product.

Ok, I have now done that via a post in the KiTTY forum.
