KeyCombiner doesn't work in After Effects 2023

Describe the bug

When I use After Effects 2023, KeyCombiner couldn't automatically recognize the window.

When I use other software, like Chrome or Spotify, KeyCombiner can automatically recognize the window.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open After Effects 2023
2. Click on 'Windows + Alt + C' to activate KeyCombiner

Screenshots

After Effects 2023

Chrome

Spotify

Additional context

Thank you for your attention. I like this software.

Thanks for this request!

In order to correctly match the shortcuts from KeyCombiner's public After Effects collection, could you provide me with the application name that KeyCombiner detects on your platform for After Effects 2023?

To do this, please try to use the instant lookup while running After Effects 2023, then open the log file at %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Roaming\keycombiner\logs\main.log.

The log file will contain a line like this:

Detected running application: Google-chrome

But instead of Google-chrome it will have the name it detects for After Effects 2023

Now that this problem has disappeared, I think this kind of problem may occur occasionally, if this problem recurs next, I will contact your here. Thank your for your reply.

Hey @tkainrad, I have the exact same bug as described above but for the Illustrator app. Otherwise, KeyCombiner works fine with Edge, Notepad++ or Spotify. When I open the log file as suggested above, I get these lines:

[2023-04-17 17:53:01.039] [info]  Detected running application: Illustrator.exe
[2023-04-17 17:53:41.544] [info]  Detected running application: Illustrator.exe

[2023-04-17 17:54:29.943] [info]  Detected running application: Illustrator.exe

However, the program doesn't try to load the application like it does with the other applications:

[2023-04-17 17:52:37.455] [info]  Detected running application: notepad++.exe
[2023-04-17 17:52:37.458] [info]  will try to load file: C:\Users\gabri\AppData\Local\Programs\keycombiner\resources\static\lookup\notepad.yaml

[2023-04-17 17:52:52.379] [info]  will try to load file: C:\Users\gabri\AppData\Local\Programs\keycombiner\resources\static\lookup\teams.yaml

How can I fix this error?
