That's https://github.com/microsoft/terminal/issues/2988, unfortunately difficult to fix.

For me, only cmdlet using GUI like Show-Command Get-ChildItem or Get-ChildItem | Out-GridView open behind the terminal. For now no issue while opening external app like code $Profile or start .

Interesting thing. If I use an alternative Out-GridView cmdlet from here, the GUI opens in front.
