WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe blocks

If I accidentally press Win+H, a keyboard will appear on the screen. When I close it, a ghost “window” stays in its place. Nothing is visible, but if I click with the mouse in that part of the screen, the visible window does not receive the event. It’s pretty infuriating and I can’t figure out how to disable this feature entirely. Does anyone know?

In a command prompt or powershell (admin):

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /v Debugger /d "%SystemRoot%\system32\systray.exe" /f
taskkill /im "WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /t /f 
echo done

Undo:

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\WindowsInternal.ComposableShell.Experiences.TextInput.InputApp.exe" /v Debugger /f
echo done  

Obviously this will disable touch keyboard completely, but you can use OSK instead if ever needing it.
