Taskbar preview is wrong after restoring PL/SQL Developer

Start PL/SQL Developer.
Open some queries and kill the application using the task manager.
Restart PL/SQL Developer.
Choose the Recovery.
Notice that the preview in the taskbar still shows the Recovery window.
This should be updated.

Minor issue, but still annoying.

PL/SQL Developer 11 and 12 Beta 7
 
I have seen some other posts related to this issue (e.g. from the beta forum Windows 10 Alt-tab picture of program).
I often get wrong Alt-tab preview of PLD.

Steps to reproduce:
* Open an arbitrary Windows program, e.g. Notepad.
* Open PLD.
* Shift between Notepad and PLD using Alt-Tab. The preview for PLD looks OK.
* In PLD, press F1 to open Oracle HTML manuals. If manuals are not setup, a page is shown where you can input a directory (chapter 33.2, page 264 in the PDF manual for version 12.0).
* Now, if you use Alt-tab to go back to PLD and use PLD again to go back to Notepad or HTML manual, the preview of PLD is changed into the HTML manual image. It stays like this until you use Alt-tab to navigate to the HTML manual window. Then the PLD image will be correct. Also the taskbar preview is affected.

If you close the HTML manual window PLD seems to work again, but when you open a new pop-up in PLD (e.g. the large data editor), the HTML manual image could be shown again. Or the preview image is not updated with the large date editor image, but still show the 'main' PLD window.

Small issue, but quite annoying as this also happens after recovery etc. as stated.
