As far as UI goes I dont think it need to be something too spectacular or complex. Some little icon next to the clock that opens a simple windows is more than enough. As long as it display the total time and update whenever 3dsMax is closed, you don't need much else.
But I think it'd be nice if you can make it so that it continuously track time through different versions of max, since I'm not sure if copy pasting the excel file will add new etries or rewrite existing.

do you need to bother with all that, tracking active windows and tracking the file names in the excel?
Wont it be easier to just track the time the program is opened, the .exe, regardless of how many instances or which one is currently active?
Its interesting to look back at different projects and how long you spend on each, but as time progress it can become clattered with informations for projects you barely remember.
So maybe adding an extra tab in the UI that has a list of the most recent projects could be a nice addition in the future.

I use Lightshot for capturing screenshots, since better options than default windows, and I think the type of UI/menus it has is more than enough for something like that.
