While surfing to a site within my company, the browser's title seems to be an error message.

In the taskbar, I can see the following:

TF400813: The user 'e387ba6a-0...

While using tasklist /V | findstr "TF", I can see the following:

TF400813: The user 'e387ba6a-09a6-4c12-8c76-6492ea8f582d\dominique.xxxxx

(I've blurred the letters of my family name for privacy reasons, but I can tell you that only five letters are shown, there seems to be a maximum of 72 characters.)

You can clearly see that not the entire error message is visible.

Does anybody know how (if possible) I can see the full window title?

My operating system is Windows-10.

Edit after some more investigation
The following PowerShell command doesn't work:

Get-Process | format-table id,name,mainwindowtitle -AutoSize

Most probably because the mentioned browser window is just one of several browser windows, and the Powershell command only shows the title of the mainwindow.

Thanks in advance

Frame challenge: Press F12 in the browser to open the dev tools. The full contents of the title tag will be visible in the head section of the inspection pane.

You can try this:

tasklist /fi "WindowTitle eq TF*" /v /fo list

tasklist /fi "WindowTitle eq TF*" /v /fo csv


tasklist /fi "WindowTitle eq TF*" /v /fo list | find /i "TF"

I don't know if this powershell script can answer or not your question for your case :

$ArrayBrowsers=@("firefox","chrome","iexplore","msedge","opera")
ForEach ($Browser in $ArrayBrowsers) {
    Get-Process $Browser -EA SilentlyContinue |
        Where mainwindowtitle -NE '' |
            select ID,name,mainwindowtitle | FT -AutoSize
}
