Hi @AkazaDorian which version of PowerToys are you running? With v0.12.0 and later, PWA windows should be snapping to zones, if they don't work for you can you please report the Edge Chromium version and the spcific PWA that doesn't snap? Thank you.

Sorry that was confusing, I have updated the title and hope it could clear it out
Thanks for the clarification.
Was just sent to this issue because of my own experience with PWA's.
If I place a PWA in a certain zone - any time after that when I open the browser it is "installed" from - that new window also follows the PWA to the same zone.
I use a 2/3 / 1/3 configuration for FanzyZones with the largest zone on the left side of my screen. So my example is the Twitter app installed from Edge Canary. Open the app and place it in my 1/3 zone. Next time I open Edge Canary, that new window also opens in the 1/3 zone. If I move it back over to the 2/3 zone where I would prefer the browser to open - then the next time I open that Twitter PWA then it also opens in the 2/3 zone.
Maybe a bit of info - as far as I know - The PWA's are basically "special versions" of the browser. That means they are opened as the default .exe
files followed with a parameter that is handled by the browser. So, differentiating between the same exe file is pretty difficult...
Not sure if it's because FZ uses process names to decide which zone the app is supposed to go to. If there's a way to get the information like the Processes
tab of Task Manager has, then it should be able to be solved
It is. The things you can see in Task Manager are windows (or window titles)

I feel like window titles are more applicable to FancyZones rather then process names?
Summary of the new feature/enhancement
Please support those PWAs installed by Chromium Edge which are opened in individual windows on the "Move newly created windows to their last known zone" function, for now they are opened up in a very strange position (mostly out of the screen)
