The Issue

When on the claim page and clicking the Download location at the bottom of a claim, the goal is to open the Explorer and locate the file. When this is done on Windows, the explorer Window flashes in the taskbar but doesn't come to focus.

I also noticed this happens hyperlinks and Edge Browser (Chrome seems to work ok, so does IE), like the FAQ button from Help page. Seems to occur when LBRY is in full-screen mode.

Steps to reproduce

Open a downloaded claim
Click path to claim from "Downloaded to"
Notice the explorer window does not come to the foreground.

Expected behaviour

Explorer comes to foreground

Actual behaviour

Flashes in taskbar

System Configuration

LBRY Daemon version:
LBRY App version:
LBRY Installation ID:
Operating system:

Anything Else
