There was a problem hiding this comment.
@DHowett The fix is that this if-condition is gone. If the currentDesktop was acquired we must yield a window = nullptr if no window exists on the current desktop. This if-condition however will assign the most recent window.

Whoops. Closes #18652 <DHowett> I chatted with Leonard to figure out why I kept misunderstanding this PR. The key is that **this function should not always return an existing window.** It's supposed to find an existing window on the current virtual desktop, not literally any window anywhere. (cherry picked from commit 5ae95d7) Service-Card-Id: PVTI_lADOAF3p4s4AxadtzgYvdmA Service-Version: 1.23
