✔️ Expected Behavior

PT Workspace should be able to open up any MS edge instances specified in the PT workspace WITH all the MS edge workspaces or open Tabs for each instance when I launch the PT Workspace.

❌ Actual Behavior

When Iaunched the PT Workspace I created, it opened 3 NEW edge instances - which did not contain my MS Edge instances.

@Yojabey you'll need to manually configure the Edge Workspaces that you want Edge to launch into. PowerToys Workspaces unfortunately cannot detect the app's state easily at this time.

See my comment here on how to do this: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys/issues/34675#issuecomment-2339350341

Let us know if that works! /needinfo
