Ctrl+l works in powershell but NOT in conda powershell

The exception that I got is the following

Exception:
System.IO.IOException: The parameter is incorrect.

   at System.IO.__Error.WinIOError(Int32 errorCode, String maybeFullPath)
   at System.Console.SetWindowPosition(Int32 left, Int32 top)
   at Microsoft.PowerShell.PSConsoleReadLine.ProcessOneKey(ConsoleKeyInfo key, Dictionary`2 dispatchTable, Boolean ignoreIfNoAction, Object arg)
   at Microsoft.PowerShell.PSConsoleReadLine.InputLoop()
   at Microsoft.PowerShell.PSConsoleReadLine.ReadLine(Runspace runspace, EngineIntrinsics engineIntrinsics)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

Expected behavior is that ctrl+l is equivalent the command clear, i.e. the screen is cleared and the prompt is located in the top of the terminal window. Running on Windows 10, Miniconda 64 bit.

conda anaconda powershell

As suggested in the comments, try re-binding the Ctrl+l key handler to a custom scriptblock that simply executes Clear-Host (of which clear is an alias):

Set-PSReadLineKeyHandler -Chord 'Ctrl+l' -ScriptBlock { Clear-Host }
