Could you build this?
No Requires low-level Windows desktop systems programming to manipulate OS display/window affinity APIs (such as SetWindowDisplayAffinity with WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE) and deal with anti-virus heuristics.
What it would actually take: A native Windows C++/C# application using the Win32 API, specifically `SetWindowDisplayAffinity` with `WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE` on Windows 10/11. It requires process monitoring hooks, Windows system tray integration, code signing certificates to avoid SmartScreen/antivirus false positives, and deep knowledge of DWM (Desktop Window Manager) behavior.
