That's a little weird indeed. What's the output of xprop | grep "WM_CLASS(STRING)" when you click on the problematic applications? Also: Do you use Wayland or Xorg?

> xprop | grep "WM_CLASS(STRING)"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "evolution", "Evolution"
> xprop | grep "WM_CLASS(STRING)"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "org.gnome.Nautilus", "Org.gnome.Nautilus"

Thanks. The xprop output for nautlius is different on my machine. I wonder why.
You said that you had to change the following configurations:
"org.gnome.gedit.Org.gnome.gedit": "org.gnome.gedit",
"zoom.zoom": "zoom",
"evolution.Evolution": "evolution",
"org.gnome.Nautilus.Org.gnome.Nautilus": "nautilus"
What were the values of lwsm for those (in your session file)? Or didn't you even get to that point?

PS: I also changed "org.gnome.gedit.Org.gnome.gedit": "gedit",

But how does the non working one look like?

Here's a log for save and restore and the corresponding session.json: https://gist.github.com/schmunk42/2098c4fd575acefbfad5480ccd36337c
[edit]
I removed my custom mappings to create it.
btw: might be a separate issue, but in case of an error it would be good to have an additional switch like -f to force saving on not save by default, because you'll very like have a broken config.
And for an extended validation it would be nice to "check" the saved config somehow.

Thanks! Not sure why the WM_CLASS_NAMEs are different on your machine. How did you install gnome and the problematic applications? Normally the wm class name has a specific pattern, which allows for guessing the corresponding desktop file name. But it's not consistent a 100% of the time that's why it is possible to manually configure it. If there is some regularity about it and some indicator how to know that's the case I gladly add some logic for it but honestly I wouldn't know what those might be.

I installed Arch via "Antergos (Installer)", I don't really remember if Gnome was my first desktop (from the installer) - maybe I installed it via pamac.

It might help to do a "case-insensitive uniqueness" check of the items in WM_CLASS.
Two other weird entries:
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "wavebox", "wavebox"
WM_CLASS(STRING) = "zoom", "zoom"
Maybe a question for Stackoverflow, why they're duplicated?!

Yes probably. Checking for double inputs. It's not really consistent though as your example shows:
"org.gnome.gedit.Org.gnome.gedit": "org.gnome.gedit",
"zoom.zoom": "zoom",
"evolution.Evolution": "evolution",
"org.gnome.Nautilus.Org.gnome.Nautilus": "nautilus"
And there might be problems e.g. if an app is really called bam.bam or something like that.
I think about it. Currently I'm pretty busy with this project. I will revisit the issue when I have more time or if more people run into it ;)

As I can't think of a good generic solution, I am leaving things as they are. If somebody has a good concept how to handle that or even a better approach, please let me know!
