Process names (e.g. explorer.exe) instead of window titles by aw-watcher-window

[Fivefold]

• [x] I am on the latest ActivityWatch version.
• [x] I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.

• OS name and version: Windows 10 Pro 20H2 build Edition Windows 10 Pro build 19042.1237
• ActivityWatch version: 0.11.0

Describe the bug

Not sure if this is actually a bug or intended behaviour, but the official screenshots imply otherwise. For window titles aw-watcher-window seems to log the process names (e.g. firefox.exe instead of Firefox). This also affects category matching, e.g. (case-sensitive) Firefox won't match the firefox application, but firefox.exe or (case-sensitive) firefox will.

This is on a fresh install.

Maybe it's relevant, I installed ActivityWatch using chocolatey https://community.chocolatey.org/packages/activitywatch

Expected behavior

Show the window titles as shown in the official screenshots.

Additional context

I found errors in the aw-watcher-window logs but don't think they are related:

There's more identical OLE errors

Maybe those relate to the "unknown" application.

I think the screenshot is of the Linux build which does not have the same method of fetching the application name. The behavior you have is expected on windows I believe.
