FancyZones doesn't properly distinguish between main and sub-windows like Thunderbird "send dialogue"
Microsoft PowerToys version
0.80.1
Installation method
PowerToys auto-update
Running as admin
No
Area(s) with issue?
FancyZones
Steps to reproduce
Open Thunderbird and snap main window to a zone.
Start writing a new message and snap the opened dialogue to a different zone.
(optionally) let a task alarm go off, focus the alarm dialogue and snap it to a different zone.
Close the sub-window dialogues.
Close Thunderbird.
Reopen Thunderbird.
Write a new message.
✔️ Expected Behavior
Thunderbird should remain snapped to the initial zone, Message composition dialogue should open in the second zone, that it was snapped to. Alarm dialogue should open in the third zone.
❌ Actual Behavior
Thunderbird reopens in either the second or third zone, instead of remaining in its own assigned zone. Upon re-assigning of Thunderbird to the initial zone, the other dialogues are opened also in the initial zone. There doesn't seem to be a distinction made between the different windows.
Other Software
Thunderbird 115.10.1 64-Bit.
