Of course I could, and I did, eventually.
The problem was that in the moment, I did not understand why my Alt+Space shortcut that had always worked before instead brought up this weird launcher window instead of the standard system menu I was expecting. After fiddling around for some time, I gave up and rebooted and lost data.
Once I learned what was going on, I switched the shortcut in PowerToys.
That does not excuse the PowerToys team for disabling a fundamental Windows shortcut key combo.
