2. Or Create a window rule for an electron-based app (such as tutamail)
3. Close Settings Window and test if rules are working

I forgot to mention that both Protonmail and Tutanota remain running in the system tray, which from where I usually re-open their main windows...

Please don't use force temporarily if you want rules to persist.
