Windows 10: Issue: Afterburner/Rivatuner OSD appears in Photos App

Since a recent update to Windows own Photos App, the On-Screen Display from Afterburner/Rivatuner appears in the application window.





I've had this minor annoyance with desktop applications such as MPC and Blender but its very easy to fix by creating a profile for the offending exe. With "Photos" being a UWP app this isnt possible. Anyone know a workaround? I keep afterburner running in the background because I dip in and out of games and keep an eye on temps.
