[SOLVED] Tmux freezes randomly

Hello,
I'm using tmux on my dedicated server which is running Arch and often I'm editing files with vim.
Recently tmux started to freeze my entire session and there's no way to unfreeze it with commands or shortcuts (i've tried CTRL+S, CTRL+Q, stty -ixon, but it isn't working). Sometimes it unfreezes itself.
I've passed stty -ixon to my .bashrc and launched again all my tmux sessions but it's still freezing sometimes, especially when my laptop has timeouts to my server.
Tmux responds to commands like CTRL+B D or another and I can enter tmux commands but programs which are running in the session are not responding.

I'm using latest updates on my server and I'm using KiTTY on Windows 10 to connect to it by SSH.

How can I fix this issue?

Thanks in advance,
M. VonFlynee

SOLVED: I've switched to git version and it no longer happens.

Try with Putty instead of Kitty. Also, try from some linux terminal, if possible.

I've switched to PuTTY, it's still freezing.

After switching to tmux git version, the issue disappeared.
