Btw, this is probably because komorebi thinks that the minimized window is visible, even though it isn't, so it tiles the minimized window.

I think this is specifically because Windows Terminal isn't identified as a tray_and_multi_window application in the config generation inputs.

Is this only happening with Windows Terminal, or also with other applications?

@LGUG2Z commented on GitHub (Aug 18, 2022): I think this is specifically because Windows Terminal isn't identified as a `tray_and_multi_window` application in the [config generation inputs](https://github.com/LGUG2Z/komorebi-application-specific-configuration/blob/master/applications.yaml). Is this only happening with Windows Terminal, or also with other applications?

Also if this is specific to Windows Virtual Desktops and not to Komorebi Workspaces, I'm not sure that any further work will be done on this as Windows Virtual Desktops are officially unsupported until Microsoft releases an official API to fully interact with them.

It happens with any application, it assumes the window is open when its minimized when I switch to a virtual desktop and then switch back
