Describe the bug
So I am trying to record launching an application as administrator (Run As admin) but when the UAC Screen comes up, recording pauses automatically and does not continue after entering the user credentials and closing the UAC request.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
On a machine that has AD authentication enabled, restricted user accounts and UAC enabled, just start recording, launch an application as admin by selecting "Run as administrator" at the app shortcut.

Expected behavior
Most sensible action would be to continue recording after the UAC request

Desktop (please complete the following information):

  • OS: Edition Windows 10 Enterprise
    Version 20H2
    OS build 19042.2965
    Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.19041.1000.0

  • Version 2.38.1

To make things worse, after it paused and I unpause it, it is stuck on the last frame recorded for the rest of the session. Tried with area and screen recording.
