Research direction

Start in the Workspaces area and reproduce the reported sequence with Microsoft Edge vertical tabs: resize the tab, enter and leave YouTube fullscreen, and observe the restored size. Use the attached PowerToys report while tracing the fullscreen transition; done means the tab returns to its configured workspace size after fullscreen ends.
