Summary

I use windows 11 build in "new outlook" (alias olk.exe). I define olk.exe to start in ws 2 ("mail"):

  "workspaces": [
    {
      "name": "Work",
      "layout": "UltrawideVerticalStack"
    },
    {
      "name": "Mail",
      "layout": "UltrawideVerticalStack",
      "initial_workspace_rules": [
        {
          "kind": "Exe",
          **"id": "olk.exe"**
        }
      ]
    },

If I am in WS 1 = “Work” and then open olk.exe by clicking on the taskbar, komorebi is no longer executed correctly. I have to close komorebi via the task manager or via the terminal. See screenshot.
If I do not set the option to start olk.exe to WS 2 = “Mail”, then everything works fine.

Error-msg via Deepl :)
A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a certain amount of time, or the established connection failed because the connected host did not respond. (OS error 10060)

Hmm could you double check if this is fixed by the fix for #1212?
