Probably a more complicated issue but one that could be possible. Ignore games in standard fullscreen mode and set all others to borderless mode.

I looked into this and I'm afraid it's not possible to find out what started a process (steam).
Without this information this feature can't be implemented as "borderlessing" all non-fullscreen windows would result in a huge mess.

I came up with a dirty workaround but advise not to use it.
I got the fullpath to the processes through process.MainModule.FileName and checked if the path contained "steam". While this might work for most users I'm afraid this could lead to false positives and undetected games when they are not installed in the default steam-directory.

Besides to that I'm opting against making the software do thing on its own without user interaction.

Now that I think about it it isn't a very clever idea and would probably require a whitelist or some other complicated hack to make it work properly.
