Command + Space for Spotlight does not work #4

Hello

Today I’ve installed your little tool an I like it a lot because I switched from Win to Mac a year ago and don’t like that apps stays open when the last window was closed.

But there is a problem with spotlight. The keystroke command+space does not work when the tool is running. The little search-window does not show up. I‘m using a MB-Pro 16" 2021 M1Pro with Ventura 13.1

An additional note: After starting SwiftQuit command+space is working one time. It seams SwiftQuit is killing a process which is needed by Spotlight search after it's last window (the input field" is closed.

By the way: It is not possible to send you an email.

Hope you can fix this or tell me a workaround

Found the solution: Added "/System/Library/CoreServices/Spotlight.app" to the exclude list.

Got it. I've added both spotlight and finder to the default exclusion list for now.
