Description
Both my Windows 10 and Windows 11 show a confusing icon of the calculator when I want to bring its window to the foreground by Alt-Tab.
Can I do anything with this?
I have set
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer DWORD AltTabSettings 1
to show small icons. But all other icons are O.K., so why not the Calculator?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the calculator Alt-Tab icon behavior on Windows 10 or Windows 11, including the reported AltTabSettings value. Trace where the Calculator window icon is selected and compare it with the other application icons. Done means the Calculator displays the expected icon in Alt-Tab on the affected Windows versions.
