I have never had this problem before until today. When I press Super and then search for the application I want, I can usually just hit enter and then the application launches and appears on the screen. Now, whenever I hit enter with the application selected, it just sends me back to the current application I am on and then sends me a notification like this: Image of Notification with text '"Untitled 1 - LibreOffice Writer" is ready'

I have tried solutions from questions like this one, When I launch an app, the focus doesn't move to the opened app to no avail. I would appreciate any assistance. Thank you!

Install the Gnome Shell extension "No Annoyance" to get rid of this behavior, and have your launched window focused automatically.

• You can install the extension using the software center or using the terminal command:

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-no-annoyance

• You then need to enable the extension. To that aim, either install Extensions (gnome-shell-extension-prefs), or Tweaks (gnome-tweaks). Both tools allow to enable or disable Gnome Shell extensions.
