Just wanted to note I have reproduced this bug on windows.
I was able to find the bug doing :E when in my _vimrc, opening up a directory with vim. I was also able to reproduce this bug in a random java file inside of a random github project. Once I select a file, for example the java file, I can write to it, however I cannot quit, do a quit command opens up the same error and sends me back to the directory listing (within netrw)

Furthermore it is produced when doing :q, :q!

To be clear, this bug prevents exiting vim without fully just getting a new command prompt or powershell and only activates upon pressing s (as in at least once, however it still happens on more than one press)
