Environment

Windows build number: Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19640.1]
PowerToys version: v0.18.2
PowerToy module for which you are reporting the bug (if applicable): PowerToys Run

Steps to reproduce

Pressing Alt + Space to open the traditional Window Control it actually opens PowerToys Run. Which I love, but I wish to change the key combination back to Win + Space, like it was on previous versions. I tried to do it myself but it doesn't work anymore 🤷🏼‍♂️. I can't register this combination.

Expected behavior

When I press Alt + Space I'm expecting to get the Window Control (size, move, minimize, etc) but instead I get PowerToys Run (wich I love) but I wish it was back to the Win + Space like in previuos versions. I also tried registering Ctrl + Space but with no luck (most likely I'm not doing it correctly).

Actual behavior

It opens PowerToys Run

I agree, we need the Window Control menu for example when a window is opened outside the display limits, it's useful to move it or close it. Please change that shortcut to Win + Space.

I've changed it to Win+Alt+Space, for the time being at least.
