Portable ConEmu Launched via Task Scheduler to Bypass Windows 10 UAC Does Not Display Attached Child GUI Apps #2335

Open mbennette68 opened 3 years ago

Hello,

Versions

ConEmu build: 210627 x32/x64 (tried both) OS version: Windows 10 x64 Used shell version: PowerShell 7.1.3

Problem description

When using portable ConEmu configured to launch via Task Scheduler so as to bypass Windows 10 User Account Control, causes any GUI Apps, e.g. VSCode, that I try to attach to not display in its own tab as a child GUI app. The app gets attached, but the app's GUI, VS Code or Google Chrome in this case, is not visible.

Steps to reproduce a shortcut via Windows Task Scheduler can be found here:

https://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-create-program-shortcut-run-without-uac-prompt-windows-7.htm Just use ConEmu64.exe for the default application in the above link.

Actual results

The attached GUI is not visible within ConEmu's tabs when ConEmu is started as Windows Task Scheduler Task Shortcut

Expected results

The GUI should be displayed inside one of ConEmu's tabs

Additional files

No difference between the Task Scheduler Version & Default Portable ConEmu Download Configurations. They are both the same apps, e.g. ConEmu, just started different, with the Task Scheduler Shortcut version only designed to start by bypassing Windows UAC dialog from popping up warning me that the app does not have elevated privileges.

Thank you, MB
