I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate
-
OS version and name: Windows 10 update 1809
-
Hyper.app version: Hyper 2.0.0 stable
-
Link of a Gist with the contents of your .hyper.js: No changes to default .hyper.js
-
Relevant information from devtools (CMD+ALT+I on macOS, CTRL+SHIFT+I elsewhere): No warnings or errors in the console

The issue is reproducible in vanilla Hyper.app:

Issue
I used to be able to use autohotkey text expansion with hyper but the text expansions stopped working.
This issue only appeared after updating windows to 1809 but I am only seeing this problem in hyper. I can still use the commands in the cmd prompt, bash for windows, and powershell.
May be related to #2806

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on Windows 10 update 1809 with vanilla Hyper 2.0.0, then compare AutoHotkey expansion behavior in Hyper, cmd, Bash for Windows, and PowerShell. Check issue #2806 for related context; done means text expansion works reliably in Hyper without console errors.
