Guess if you call/activate it using this process ID

WinGet [v1.0.12+]

Retrieves a window's unique ID, process ID, process name, or a list of its controls. It can also retrieve a list of all windows matching the specified criteria.

Retrieves a window's unique ID, process ID, process name, or a list of its controls. It can also retrieve a list of all windows matching the specified criteria.

WinGet, OutputVar [, Cmd, WinTitle, WinText, ExcludeTitle, ExcludeText]

List: Retrieves the unique ID numbers of all existing windows that match the specified WinTitle, WinText, ExcludeTitle, and ExcludeText (to retrieve all windows on the entire system, leave WinTitle and WinText blank but specify Program Manager or a non-existent title for ExcludeTitle). Each ID number is stored in an array element whose name begins with OutputVar's own name, while OutputVar itself is set to the number of retrieved items (0 if none). For example, if OutputVar is MyArray and two matching windows are discovered, MyArray1 will be set to the ID of the first window, MyArray2 will be set to the ID of the second window, and MyArray itself will be set to the number 2.
