Exception report

I'm using German localization. On initiating MenuComplete (Ctrl+Space) on a command with many suggestions, I'm queried "Alle n Möglichkeiten anzeigen? (Ja oder Nein) _" but pressing "j" doesn't initiate the listing.
Instead, I have to press "y" for the English word "Yes".

Steps to reproduce

  • Use a German localized version
  • Open PowerShell
  • Type Get-Command [Ctrl+Space]
  • Confirm with "j" for "Ja"

Expected behavior

The completion possibilities should be displayed

Actual behavior

The prompt appears again, j isn't recognized as confirmation
