  • I am on the latest ActivityWatch version.
  • I have searched the issues of this repo and believe that this is not a duplicate.
  • OS name and version: Windows 11 Home, Version: 23H2
  • ActivityWatch version: v0.13.1

Describe the bug

Module aw-window-watcher won't run.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior, for example:
1. Go to C:\Users<user name>\AppData\Local\Programs\ActivityWatch\aw-watcher-window
2. Click on aw-watcher-window.exe
4. See error

Expected behavior

I expected it to work.

Documentation

The following constantly repeats:
2024-08-16 09:45:39 [INFO ]: Connection to aw-server established by aw-watcher-window (aw_client.client:447)
2024-08-16 09:45:40 [ERROR]: Exception thrown while trying to get active window (aw_watcher_window.main:124)

Additional context

I've since installed python and pywin32 but no change. By the way I found data that it worked a year ago even though I didn't install this till yesterday.
