In absence of an answer from the OP I'll close this report.

I don't see anything to fix unless we can get more info about exactly what his happening and how to reproduce.

You're reporting that you are on Windows. Is that true for both your computers? Two questions:

1. Are you using the CLI or the GUI for Octave? (If you don't know that: are you starting Octave from the command prompt cmd.exe or from the start menu / desktop shortcut directly?) If you've used only one, can you try the other and see if it works and report back?

2. Are you using any East Asian (Chinese / Japanese / Korean) character sets? If not, are you using any character sets that use extended Unicode characters bigger than one byte? (E.g. extended Latin characters with umlauts, accents, etc.) If so, do you know what your Windows locale settings are? Octave uses UTF-8 internally and depending on Windows codepage settings it can sometimes mess up the display.

Possibly related to bug #58717, bug #58637, bug #47571 / bug #55689, bug #43099, and bug #50409.

Hello,

I tried to replace Matlab by Octave this year, but on both my computer the console crashes randomly, but generally after a few minutes.

By "crash" I mean a lot of unusual symbols appear with different colours. After that I cannot use it and have to reboot Octave.

I tried a few releases but have the same problem. And as I said previously this bug appears on both my computers.

Do you have any idea ?

Thank you all :)
