uigetfile - forces main gui to go behind other windows

Does anyone else suffer from this:

From a GUI created by appdesigner, when you run uigetfile and open a file, the gui goes behind other windows windows that may be open like explorer

This is my code:

[file,path]=uigetfile({'*.xls';'*.txt'},'Load Data',app.startfolder);     
filename=fullfile(path,file);
app.startfolder=path;                
T = readtable(filename);

Ny main GUI Figure (app.UIFigure) is set so that:

windowstyle =Normal

windowstate=Maximized
