"Window in Focus" information is provided by Microsoft-Windows-Win32k provider. For example:

xperf -start uisession -on Microsoft-Windows-Win32k

Consider specifying a flag to reduce the event rate. See this UIforETW change for details: https://github.com/google/UIforETW/commit/9f1a9e7fc2fe6be11dbde92d064b3e58bef479bd – Bruce Dawson Sep 12 '15 at 21:57

I use this, which also captures the required data:

xperf -start perf!GeneralProfiles.InBuffer && timeout -1 && xperf -stop perf!GeneralProfiles.InBuffer Trace.etl

This captures most data you need.
