[Bug]: Confirm/Alert popups break focus about electron HOT 5 OPEN

here is the main code..
function showAlert() {
alert("This is a test alert.");
window.focus();
}
function showPopupAndFocusInput() {
alert("This is a test alert.");
document.getElementById("myInput").focus();
window.focus();
}

from electron.

I can confirm this on Ubuntu, however, I cannot confirm the claim that this has always been this way. The Fiddle works perfectly fine for me with v28.2.7 and breaks starting with v29.0.0-alpha.1. v27.3.6 and v26.6.10 also work for me.

I would not be surprised if Windows changed something that broke it for Electron.

@Maniiisha-sachdeva are you implying that calling window.focus(); after a popup will repair this focus issue?

I'll have to try this on Monday.

I tried calling window.focus and .focus on an input element, and neither fixed the focus issue.

Also tried these versions:
(just the alert/confirm bug, not the focus function)

version       worked
28.2.7        ❌
27.3.6        ❌
26.6.10       ❌
21.0.0-beta.3 ❌ //the version of 21 that I noticed the issue with previously.
24.1.0        ❌ //version I had bumped the project to from 21.

Seeing that v28, v27 and v26 failed for me but not @Prinzhorn, I believe this is primarily a Windows issue. I can't test other versions of Windows unfortunatly. But I find it quite bizarre that it stops working on Ubuntu with v29.

Either way it's reassuring that it's not just me and my code. I'll have to implement a workaround for now.

edit: changed emoji for clarity.

in this when i changed the input type to number then i am able to change the number by its up and down arrow but not able to type in it and as i am switching the tab its started working can i work on it further?
