Describe the bug

When opening KeePas from locked state via a shortcut (Ctrl+Alt+A in my case), resulting Windows Hello window is not in foreground and does not have focus on it. This causes reading fingerprint to fail until I manualy select Windows Hello window to make it in focus.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Lock KeePass database, so accessing it requires authentication.
  2. Open any aplication that has autofill enabled.
  3. Use autofill shortcut.
  4. Resulting Windows Hello window is in background and not in focus.

Expected behavior

Windows Hello window must be on top and in focus.

Screenshots

Windows Hello window opened in background and not in focus.
