Windows for Universal apps (aka Windows Store apps or Metro apps) don't run in separate processes the way that regular desktop apps do. They use a background process, leaving the windows themselves to run in a container process, (ApplicationFrameHost.exe). Setting up Trigger rules for Universal apps is therefore a slightly different process from regular desktop apps.
In this guide we'll use the Calendar app as an example.
  • Open the app and position it where you like. This is where the Trigger rule will position it when activated.
  • Open App
    Position App
  • Right-click the DisplayFusion icon and click "Settings."
    Tray Menu - Settings
  • Select the "Triggers" tab, then enable the "Enable Triggers" checkbox.
    Enable Triggers
  • Click the "Add" button.
    Add Trigger
  • Enable the "Process Filename" checkbox.
    Enable Process Filename
  • Cancel the "Select Application" window.
    Cancel
  • Type
    *ApplicationFrameHost.exe
    in the "Process Filename" text field.
    Filename text
  • Enable the "Window Text" checkbox.
  • In the "Window Text" text field, type the name of the Universal app. (e.g. "Calendar")
    Window Text
  • Below the "Actions" pane, click "Add," then select "Move Window to Specific Size and Location" from the dropdown.
  • Add
    Move
  • Drag the blue target icon and drop it onto the app window.
  • Drag
  • Click "OK."
    OK
  • Click "OK" on the Edit Trigger and Triggers windows to save and apply the rule.
OK
OK Again
