Steps to reproduce

When I right-click blank space inside a File Explorer folder and select "Open in Windows Terminal", the new Terminal window spawns behind the File Explorer window instead of popping up on top and gaining foreground focus. I have to manually click the Terminal window to bring it forward.

Expected Behavior

Actual Behavior

Terminal window loads in the background, completely covered by the original File Explorer window with no focus.
