Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Describe what you expected should happen and what did happen.

Every time I want to launch a game through remote play, on a game protected with an anticheat, I have to manually input “yes” on the uac prompt on the Windows host machine, or the launch will get stuck at “launching executable”

Funny thing, I can use steam remote play iOS app to get through this, as it shows the uac prompt, or use another software such as parsec.

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Launch wuthering waves through Deck remote play
  2. ….launching executable
  3. Failing to launch stream, the game needs to be launched manually
