Intellij IDEA console not invoking prompt when calling: readLine method.

Hi All,

I'm going through the Java tracks and somewhere along the way, the console is no longer prompting for input. It was working for me before, and I can't figure out what changed! I've searched all over the Internet, but haven't found out why this would change. Any ideas?

Hmm, this would help for a course using the workspace, but this course I'm taking is based on using the Intellij IDEA IDE.

I'm assuming some setting got changed for me, I just can't seem to figure it out. I guess I should reach out to Intellij Support? 🤷🏼‍♂️
