Powershell freezes on expo start authentication

[GustavSoderstromAltran]

Description

After running "expo start" I press "s" in order to sign in, when doing so I´m told "How would you like to authenticate? (Use arrow keys)" but at the same time powershell freezes so I can not use the arrow keys, (or anything else, not even Crtl+C, I´m forced to close powershell and start over)

Expected Behavior

I followed the steps on expo.io/learn, at the end of step 04, after running "expo start" it should be possible to sign in to my existing expo account

Observed Behavior

The web GUI opens up on expo start, but I am not signed in.
When switching back to powershell I get the QR-code and " To run the app with live reloading, choose one of: ... ...Press s to sign in" pressing s prompts the authentication choises, but at the same time freezes powershell.

when running "npm ls react-native" I get the following "invalid" statement but I am not sure how to solve it:

`-- react-native@0.55.4  invalid
npm ERR! invalid: react-native@0.55.4 C:\Expo\my-new-project\node_modules\react-native

same here... Powershell, Windows 10

Here is a workaround if you want to sign in so that it appears on your expo app. Sign in before running expo start by using expo login that way you won't need to press s and it won't freeze! Just a work around.

Same issue on windows 10!

Hi--

Using these versions of Windows/Powershell, node, yarn, and expo-cli, I tried to reproduce this and did not have the issue with the s key and freezing.

Windows 10 Home / Version 1903 / OS Build 18362.476
node v12.6.1
yarn@1.22.4
expo-cli@3.15.3

It seems like this may have been fixed in recent versions of some of this software stack. I'm going to close this issue for now. If you are using the latest version of expo-cli and encounter this issue, please reopen this and give as much information as you can in the comments about your system.
