Windows key doesn't work when playing

How do I make it so that the windows key works while playing?

Check if you don't have "gaming mode" enabled in your system settings~ you have to disable it, because it blocks the windows key. Although you can always use Alt + Tab if windows key still won't work.

Game mode isn't the issue. I tried disabling it but of course it didn't fix the issue because this is the only game block me from using windows (And rockstar games but there is an option to toggle that off). Also alt tab is annoying I much prefer windows key because most of the time I tab out to use the windows menu not to open a new tab.

Only thing I can think of is the window mode. Try playing in windowed and see if you get the same issue.
