Workspaces does not work for Edge Apps.

[jnpacker]

Microsoft PowerToys version

0.84.1

Installation method

PowerToys auto-update

Running as admin

No

Area(s) with issue?

Workspaces

Steps to reproduce

Create a workspace with three Edge Apps and one normal windows app. This involves including the Edge App parameters to edge_proxy so they will load.

✔️ Expected Behavior

All apps land in the expected to land in their saved layout.

❌ Actual Behavior

At least one Edge App ends up in the same space as one of the others. Sometimes other edge apps end up in the expected positions. Thought this might be the fancy zones return to last location, but this feature is disabled.

If I turn off Fancy Zones in v0.84.1, then it seems to work fine. The fact that running a workspace layout also disables the Fancy Zone hot-key "Shift" was what made me try with Fancy Zones off.

@jnpacker please retest with the new 0.87 PT version and if the issue persists send a /bugreport. Thanks!
