Summary of the new feature/enhancement

PowerToys Run does not function well as a focus switcher. Run lists running processes in the dropdown, but not the first result and prefers to create a new process instead of focusing on open processes. There should be an option to prioritize running processes in the dropdown.

Description of use

A new option appears under the PowerTools Run settings to enable running process prioritization.

Opening PowerTools Run should bring up the usual menu, and when a query is searched, any results matching the query that are running processes should be prioritized in the results.
