Unable to switch to PowerQuery window

Since applying the June 2022 update there have been several instances where, after using CRTL + TAB to switch between other open Windows programs while the PowerQuery window was open, I can no longer switch back into the PowerQuery window. As soon as I mouse over the PowerQuery window the window immecdiately switches back to the previous app.

Status: Needs Info

Hi @EHA_SD ,

 

I can't reproduce your problem, it works fine on my computer.
My steps are:
1. Create two tables in Power BI Desktop (June).
2. Click on Transform data and go to Query editor.
3. Open an Excel file, a PPT file and Edge browser at the same time.
4. Switch back and forth between these programs.

 

Did I miss something?

Those are essentially the steps.

 

It hasn't been happening every time, but probably 10-20% of the time; so there must be a specific step that I am doing that is causing the issue.

 

If I see any pattern with particular steps I will update as necessary.

 

Thank-you for the reply.
