Microsoft Edge is recognized as ApplicationFrameHost.exe

Thanks for this really nice app!

I found a little problem that Microsoft Edge (the new browser on Windows 10) is recognized as ApplicationFrameHost.exe

After some googling it seems like ApplicationFrameHost.exe is sometimes a kind of container for Windows 10 UWP apps (apparently for Microsoft Weather aswell for example).

Here's some solution for C# and its windows API:

@ErikBjare wrote the aw-watcher-window support for windows so I don't know much about how those windows APIs work, but my guess would be that we need to add support for UWP apps in the wmi and/or pypiwin32 libraries.

Thanks 👍

Thanks for reporting! We will probably find a way around this in the future but don't hold your breath; developing on Windows is a real pain for me.

I'm sure we'll find a solution to stuff like this in the future though, I think something similar applies to certain Java apps (such as the Java/original edition of Minecraft).
