I don't think this is a bug,Win + E is a system shortcut, try binding this system shortcut to explorer++

try binding this system shortcut to explorer++

How? Is there a Windows setting for this?

I think Explorer++ should bind it automatically when Replace Explorer is checked.

I used this method:

Modify Win + E shortcut keys
Open the registry path: HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell\opennewwindow\command , modify the default value to the program path you want to open, delete the DelegateExecute key (it is recommended to export a copy before deleting it)

In Windows 10, generally, you have to launch the ahk script with administrator privilege so that it can work normally when focusing on privileged windows, such as Task Manager. This fixes my problem of ahk shortcut scripts not always working as expected.
