Strange..., but no idea.

Maybe another window you have open (like fpdoc, code explorer ,... or a 
package you have installed...
Docked or undocked IDE?

What version of Winodws

Unfortunately not happening here. I I restart the IDE, it makes the main 
IDE bar active, So I first need to set focus to an editor, but then it 
behaves....
Same questions as above...

I know that used to happen, but I haven't had it for some years now.

Then maybe internally the ActiveWindow did not change? That would 
explain the wrong "locked" window.

Maybe some focus or activate message reaches the wrong editor at the 
wrong time?

Try compiling with VerboseFocus defined, and watch the console 
output/log file
