Custom command doesn't run when focused window is run as admin

[akamienski]

Describe the bug

Hello,

I'm using Start Menu only to trigger Win+X keyboard shortcut while left clicking start orb or using Win key. I've prepared ahk script to trigger that shortcut, converted it to exe file, and assigned it to both custom commands. It does not trigger only when currently focused app have been run as admin, like terminal or task manager.

Area of issue

Start menu

To reproduce

1. Save this ahk script and convert it to exe file using Ahk2Exe:
   #Requires Autohotkey v2.0
   #SingleInstance Force
   #NoTrayIcon
   SendMode("Input")
   SetWorkingDir(A_ScriptDir)
   Send("#x")

2. assign exe file to two Custom commands: Left click and Windows key

3. run terminal as admin or task manager

4. try to trigger exe filew with Windows key while either window is focused

Expected behavior

Trigger normally as it would with Windows key, when no window is focused or focused window runs in non-elevated session

Open-Shell version

4.4.195

Windows version

Windows 11 24H2 26100.2894

Custom commands are available in Controls tab, when Show all settings are selected in Start Menu settings. What I did is selected Custom command option for Left Click opens: and Windows Key opens:. This is how OSH settings look like:

that start.exe is an exe file I've described in the main post. I've also wrote C# executable to do the same, but that haven't solved the issue.
