Description

Not sure how many people are experiencing this but I'm running scrcpy from a nodejs call and it spawns but always in the background even when I use the flag --always-on-top

I'm not sure if this is a bug or not but just letting you guys know.
OS: Windows 11 latest at the time: 25H2
Scrcpy version: Latest at the time: 3.3.4

Any help would be appreciated!
Thank ya! ;)

Research direction

Start by reproducing the report on Windows 11 with scrcpy 3.3.4, comparing direct launch with a Node.js-spawned launch and the --always-on-top flag. Identify the relevant window behavior and document a reproducible case; done means the scrcpy window remains always on top when launched through Node.js.
