Fixes: #1362
ℹ️ About the PR
This PR resolves a flickering issue on Windows 11 that occurs when minimizing and maximizing the application or when using Alt+Tab switching.
The issue only happens on the first attempt to switch; subsequent attempts work correctly. However, after switching to another app, the problem reappears.
🛠️ What was done
Implemented a fix to ensure the window transitions (minimize, maximize, and Alt+Tab switch) occur without flickering during the first interaction cycle.
Verified that all tests run successfully with no errors.
💬 Notes
This problem was originally fixed by @Hetsavani in issue Alt + Tab Switching Issue: App Flickers and Disappears on Windows 11 #1362, but the issue is still open and outdated, so this PR provides an updated implementation.
This is my first contribution to any open-source project, so feel free to point out anything I can improve. I'm open to all feedback.
