In the new version, pressing Ctrl+Alt+SPACE to zoom will cause all PS keys to fail

Since Photoshop version 25.6 and above, on the Windows 10 operating system, using the keyboard shortcut for zooming in on an image, i.e., Ctrl+Alt+SPACE, causes all buttons in Photoshop to become unresponsive. This issue occurs 100% of the time on my computer. I had to downgrade to version 25.5.1. The problem still exists in the latest version 25.9.1, which has caused me a great deal of trouble. I hope you can resolve this issue. Thank you.

Im sorry, it may actually be a windows thing. Alt+Space brings up the system menu for me. Whats infuriating is that it works perfectly fine like one night then happens again another

    I am testing version 25.7 on Windows 11 and cannot reproduce the problem. Nothing happens after using Ctrl + Spacebar and Ctrl + Alt + Spacebar multiple times; everything works as expected.
