Research direction
The report names win32gui, Windows 11, and CPython 3.10.5 but no source file, test, or reproducible example. Start by reproducing the window-detection failure and comparing behavior with Python 3.10.2; done requires identifying a specific regression and adding a demonstrable fix or regression test.
