SCT disabled by UAC prompt

dkeller93 opened this issue · 3 comments

I'm at sct 1000 most of the night on Windows 7 64 bit. sct was working fine until I tried to open another powershell in admin mode (C-S-Ret on powershell in the start menu). When the UAC prompt pops up, my screen goes back to (what appears to be) normal.

When I run sct 1000 again, nothing happens. When I run sct <some other number>, sct works again and I can then sct 1000 to get back to my desired state.

That sounds like a bug in Windows. Likely it can be worked around by internally quickly doing "sct 8000" then "sct 1000". I don't actually have a Windows machine to test though.

Do you know if it's an issue on Windows 8, 8.1 and 10?

I'm not sure. I don't have those windows operating systems.
