📝 Provide detailed reproduction steps (if any)

  1. I have 4 monitors (one is a wide screen). I use fancyzones to create zone and some windows can be placed in zones while others can't be. Specifically a program called TWS from IBKR (link: https://www.interactivebrokers.ca/en/index.php?f=16040) can is not recognized by PowerToys as a window at all because I don't see the layouts when moving it around with Shift held or without.
  2. IBKR TWS might be coded in Java or something...
  3. Download IBKR TWS from link above please and test for yourself.

✔️ Expected result

IBKR TWS should be treated as any other window and be placed in a fancy zone

❌ Actual result

IBKR TWS is not recognized at all by powertoys

📷 Screenshots

There is no way to provide screenshot when moving a window
