Game running in borderless is not being detected as a Running App until Reload Audio is clicked #42

I'm having a small issue with WinBGMuter and my daily game, World of Tanks. Lately, it hasn’t always been detecting the game until I click "Reload Audio." This only started happening after I switched the game to borderless mode instead of full screen (exclusive).

One of the main reasons I started using WinBGMuter is that it’s fantastic for muting audio when games are running in the background – something World of Tanks doesn’t handle natively in borderless mode. WinBGMuter really is awesome for that! ❤️

I think the issue might be related to WinBGMuter not detecting the game properly when it’s already been running before launching the game. Interestingly, World of Tanks doesn’t show up on the Running Apps list in the WinBGMuter UI, even though it’s clearly running in Windows.

For now, my workaround is to just click "Reload Audio," which solves everything. Just wanted to mention this in case there's an easy fix. Thanks again for this great tool!
