You'll need to dig into the documentation then, probably starting in
one of these two places:
http://pywinauto.openqa.org/howto.html
http://pywinauto.openqa.org/module-pywinauto.application.html

The howto says that once you've started your application, calling
app.windows_() will return a list of visible, enabled, top level
windows of the application.  Try printing those and seeing if any of
them look like the window you want.  Or maybe try app.top_window_()
which tries to guess which window might be the "main" window of your
application.
