So I assume you’re running a Wine app with PlayOnLinux in full screen/virtual desktop mode? (no floating window)

The issue is likely with Wine/PlayOnLinux and that it doesn’t update the window class or title to the application running in it.

Since this isn’t really on our end, I don’t think there’s anything we can do about this. I’m therefore closing the issue, but thanks for reporting.

P.S. Heroes 3 is such a great game, got massive nostalgia when I read your logs.
