The problem

After adding to a transport that it should handle an exception (with 'handleExceptions: true') and throwing an unhandled error, every log which should be logged does not get logged at all in that same transport which handled the exception. No info logging or error logging or anything in between .

What version of Winston presents the issue?

v3.13.0

What version of Node are you using?

v16.20.2

If this worked in a previous version of Winston, which was it?

No response

Minimum Working Example

const consoleLogFormat = winston.format.printf((info) => {
    const date = new Date();
    return `${date.toLocaleDateString()}-${date.toLocaleTimeString()}-${info.level}: ${info.message}`;
});

const errorFileFormatter = winston.format.combine(
    winston.format.timestamp(),
    winston.format.json(),
    winston.format.errors()
);

const logger = winston.createLogger({
    level: 'info',
    exitOnError: false,
    format: winston.format.errors({
        stack: true,
    }),
    transports: [
        new winston.transports.File({
            level: 'error',
            dirname: 'logs',
            filename: 'error.log',
            format: errorFileFormatter,
            handleExceptions: true,
        }),
        new winston.transports.File({
            level: level,
            dirname: 'logs',
            filename: 'all_combined.log',
            format: consoleLogFormat,
        }),
        new winston.transports.Console({
            level: level,
            format: winston.format.combine(
                winston.format.colorize(),
                consoleLogFormat,
            )
        }),
    ],
});

In the code I throw an example error with:

const exampleFunction = () => {
throw new Error("testError");
}

Additional information

Other transports still work fine after the exception was thrown. Only the transport which handled the exception doesn't log anymore. In my case it should'nt stop logging, I want the application to continue even when an exception occurs.
