ℹ Computer information

  • PowerToys version: v0.23.2
  • PowerToy Utility: PowerToys Run
  • Running PowerToys as Admin: Yes
  • Windows build number: 19041.572

📝 Provide detailed reproduction steps (if any)

  1. Install and run PowerToys
  2. Open Window off-screen (sort of a bug in itself, but a common Windows issue)
  3. Press Alt+Space to open the Window menu to allow it to be moved back on-screen

✔️ Expected result

The window menu appears (Restore, move, size, etc)

❌ Actual result

A popup appears, with no indication that it is related to PowerToys, that just says "Start typing...".

One of the following should happen

  • It needs to be made clear that the window that appears is related to PowerToys Run (or at least PowerToys). It was a bit of luck that led me to realise it was PowerToys that had taken the shortcut
  • Change the shortcut to one that is not used in Windows by default
  • Do not turn it on by default, or make it an option during install (again, not enabled by default)
