Help needed applying config change to aw-watcher-window.toml

Support
#1

I have a fresh install of v0.13.2 on MacOS Sequoia.

I am trying to disable window title tracking by setting exclude_title setting to true.
I have attempted that by doing the following:

  1. Click on aw-qt system tray, click ‘Open config folder’
  2. Open the aw-watcher-window/aw-watcher-window.toml with text editor.
  3. Modified #exclude_title = false to exclude_title = true.
  4. Quit ActivityWatch by clicking on aw-qt system tray, and clicking ‘Quit ActivityWatch’
  5. Restart the app.

I still see all the window title being recorded when I expected all titles to be ‘excluded’.
Log doesn’t show anything useful. What am I doing wrong?

is there anyway I can enable additional debug logs? Failing that, is there anyway I can modify the underlying python code to log more information?
