Arch Installation Script not working (feddit.de)

I want install Arch on a new laptop(that cureently runs Windows 10) I just bought. Since I don't want to run through the installation manually(again) I want to use the installation script. Unfortunately I have a small problem. I can configure everything as I want, except the drives. When I click enter on the tab for the drives it opens a black screen with nothing in it. I can write in it anything I want, but commands don't work. It is also impossible to exit this window except if I use ctrl+c. Does anyone knows how to fix this?

Are you using the most recent Arch ISO?

Try to format drive directly from tty, and then use Archinstall script.
