Hi Shawn It seems you have found a bug, this typically only happens with the Knife Project…(I couldn’t find any other operator with this behavior)
You can of course assign a shortcut to it (SHIFT+K is free, when you haven’t used that yet).
Or you can check Developers Extras in your Preferences:

And then in Experimental use Menu Search:

This last option is now default in 2.90, so the problem doesn’t arise there (the developers must have noticed something was wrong…)
