[Bug]: detection of an application maximized to full screen

Please check for a duplicate first

  • I have checked the issue tracker if my bug has already been fixed or answered in another (possibly closed) issue.

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Open the browser but not in full screen.
  2. Turn on the video on YouTube and open it in full screen (not the browser itself).
  3. Switch via Alt+Tab to another non-full screen application.
  4. Done, the taskbar does not consider that anything is open in full screen

Expected results

The taskbar should have taken the settings when the application was expanded to full screen

Actual results

The taskbar thinks I'm on the desktop and nothing is open in full screen

Windows version

Windows 11 Insider builds (builds 22623 and up). Please mention exact build.

Other details

Windows 11 22631.2715

Fullscreen applications are actually borderless window that are at coordinates 0x0 and with the same size than the screen - they aren't technically maximized. I can look into adding this, but I've always considered explicit support for fullscreen to be kinda pointless because they cover the taskbar anyways.

Thanks for the answer. It will be good if this is added/corrected, I often watch YouTube and switch via alt+tab to discord, and I can’t read anything on the taskbar because it doesn’t take the settings of the maximized application
