Hi,

I haven't been able to reproduce this issue.

In your example, you click on Simulator which is an app, not a window. Are you able to reproduce the issue with 2 windows? For example a Finder window and a Chrome window?

Thank you 🙇

Oh right, with two windows the bug doesn't happen.

I did some more tests and apparently it only consistently happens with the simulator. Sometimes when I close an app and click on it icon using alt+tab the bug occurs, but I can't define a sequence of steps for this.

Hi,

I was able to reproduce the issue with Preview. Indeed, there was missing code to remove the Preview window, if an app-with-no-window was selected. I'll release a new version of the app with a fix soon 👍

Thank you 🙇
