default settings

I do not believe in that. Run the ConEmu with real default settings and recheck:

Press Win+R and execute ConEmu64 -basic -run {cmd}.

I have tested with (Win+R and execute ConEmu64 -basic -run {cmd} ) but the behaviour is same... It happens both on my home laptop and office. I don't think its setting's issue.
At the bottom of console value after column/row position toggles between 25V and 100V while its flickering.
Its observed that flickering is for fewer seconds if run with the above command from Win + R and for normal run it takes couple of minutes.

Show screenshots at least. I do not see any problems on my side.

After typing d I clicked on left mouse button and some more characters. As you can see cursor flickers but does not show up the characters until some time.

I've had this same issue for along time now (almost a year) across a lot of builds. I think it's possibly an environmental issue as it only occurs on one of my pc's. Opening up the real console (win+ctrl+alt+space) shows the same effect with the cursor changing between a solid block and an underscore at about twice the rate to the normal cursor blinking.

I can confirm that the issue still occurs when using Win+R and executing ConEmu64 -basic -run {cmd}.

Workaround is to restart the console from within ConEmu (ctrl+`), sometimes I have to restart it multiple times to get it working.

@Maximus5 happy to help out testing since the issue is repeatable on my desktop every time I fire up ConEmu from scratch.

Did you click in RealConsole? If so, it's not a ConEmu who process the clicks, but your console shell, application or something else.

Yes I clicked in the console. Turns out it looks to be the combination between ConEmu and Clink which causes the issue.
