Description
Describe the bug
when using Cairo to launch a UWP app (such as Windows Terminal or PowerShell Preview) via right-click -> "Open as administrator", no UAC prompt appears and the app is launched without elevated permissions.
Steps to reproduce
- install a UWP app (for example, Windows Terminal).
- add a shortcut for the app to Cairo via App Grabber or Quick Launch.
- right-click on the app shortcut, and then click "Open as administrator".
- no UAC prompt appears, and the program does not indicate it is running as administrator.
Expected behavior
a UAC prompt should appear for the app.
System information:
- Windows version: Windows 11, Insider build 22000.51
- Cairo version: 0.4.133.47321
- 32-bit or 64-bit: 64-bit
- In Cairo Settings > Advanced, is Cairo set as shell?: no.
Additional context
if launched via the dynamic desktop (or when the desktop is enabled in Cairo), the UAC prompt appears correctly when using right-click -> Run as administrator.
non-UWP apps, like DIscord, correctly trigger UAC prompts if launched via "Open as adminstrator".
