PowerToys Run

Steps to reproduce

Set PowerToys run shortcut to "Windows Key" + "Spacebar"
Open Brave browser or Open Windows Terminal
Try and open Run. Nothing happens

Only way to get it kind of working is to press "Windows Key" wait for that to show and take focus then press shorcut command. Even then PowerToys Run is behind the Windows search, so its not being placed on top of everything

✔️ Expected Behavior

When Browser ior terminal has focus and the PowerToys Run shortcut is pressed the Run window should show. It works as expected with Notepad++ and other applications

❌ Actual Behavior

Nothing shows for PowerToys Run command
