Could this be the same as #663?

@a-hohaze can you provide specific repro steps? Not able to repro this on Windows.

[WiseMack]

In azure powershell the script here
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/appserviceteam/2017/02/24/creating-a-local-pfx-copy-of-app-service-certificate/

and got 25 errors, all of them variations of

System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: The value must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the console's buffer size in that dimension.
Parameter name: left / top
Actual value was -1.

@WiseMack are you on Windows or non-Windows? Is the error when you cut and paste the script from that URL into the console?

I use PowerShell in a simple manner every day, and today an error very similar to the one listed above began to appear. I simply open PowerShell and type a period ".".
