Bug Report: Komorebi Transparency Issue with Dialogs and Windows

Summary: When Komorebi is used and certain software like VBScript Editor for Excel is open, all dialog boxes become transparent, making the window very hard to use. The issue requires reopening the window multiple times to regain functionality.

Steps to Reproduce:

Launch Komorebi.

Open VBScript Editor for Excel.

Attempt to use dialog boxes (e.g., save, open, or any other popup dialog).

Expected Behavior: Dialog boxes should be fully visible and functional without transparency issues.

Observed Behavior: All dialogs and the main window turn transparent, requiring the user to repeatedly reopen the window to use it properly.

Additional Information:

Software Version: Komorebi (please specify the version)

OS Version: (please specify your operating system)

Video Example: (attach video link here)

Workaround: Reopening the window sometimes temporarily resolves the issue, but it is not a reliable solution.

Looking for configuration files in C:\Users\Administrator

Found komorebi.json; this file can be passed to the start command with the --config flag

Found C:\Users\Administrator.config\whkdrc; key bindings will be loaded from here when whkd is started, and you can start it automatically using the --whkd flag
