Running the code in xcode
in computeOpenWindows, cgWindows() returns an empty list of windows

CGWindowListCopyWindowInfo([.excludeDesktopElements, .optionOnScreenOnly], kCGNullWindowID) returns some items (28 when i tested)
but after the filter there are 0 items in the dictionary
(i used .count for the dictionary size)

I never seen swift before but i'm preetty sure i got this right

Here is a Gist of the logs

using kCGWindowOwnerName instead of kCGWindowName works for me
you could also print an "empty" windows when there are no windows so people will atleast know the shortcut is triggering the app but there is another problem

To clarify the status of this: Catalina introduced a new permission for Screen Recording:

Side-note: the app already requires accessibility permission to be granted:

PR #33 seems promising to implement this new requirement from Catalina.

To people up-voting this issue: you didn't get any prompt when using the app? You are supposed to see something like this:

This issue should be fixed in release 1.4.5. Please try it and re-open this issue if it doesn't fix it for you :)

To clarify the status of this: Catalina introduced a new permission for Screen Recording:

Just a quick note: for the app to open this window asking for permissions you might need to have a running Finder process, without which it'd be impossible to do anything (you can't add screen recording permissions manually)
