Description
### Windows Terminal version
1.24.2812.0
### Windows build number
10.0.26100.0
### Other Software
_No response_
### Steps to reproduce
Have a settings.json that uses folders with subitems
Use the V dropdown with the mouse to show the menu and navigate to the subitem.
Right click on it to show the "Run As Administrator" context menu. The original menu will disappear.
### Expected Behavior
The menu will continue to show, just like it does when right clicking on a top level menu item
### Actual Behavior
The entire menu disappears, so you lose context of what program you are executing "Run As Administrator" against

Research direction
Reproduce the issue in Windows Terminal 1.24.2812.0 with a settings.json containing folders and subitems. Compare right-clicking a subitem in the V dropdown with right-clicking a top-level item, and consider the behavior fixed when the original menu remains visible while the Run As Administrator context menu is shown.
