With last release of Uvicorn 0.22.0 doing CTRL+C in a windows terminal doesn't work anymore. Everything is frozen and it is impossible to stop it. In addition the command --reload is broken too, because it doesn't restart anymore, probably because of the same issue.

Tried on Windows 11 and Powershell 7.3.4.

Downgrading to version 0.21.1 makes it works again.
