There was a problem hiding this comment.
This requires installation as the user, so it doesn't work on
- devices with multiple users
- installation with EPM elevation
- installation as SYSTEM without a helper like PSADT
I could use {commonstartup}, but then users can't modify the args without admin privs

Thank you for working on this! I appreciate the effort you put into this, and hope other people in the same situation are able to make use of it. |

Uses UIAccess, an Inno installer, and signing with Azure Key Vault. Not expecting this to get merged, I just needed it myself and thought it might be helpful for future reference after seeing comments in #44.

I could sign your release builds, but Azure Artifact Signing isn't available in Australia (and started triggering SmartScreen anyway), so I'm stuck with an IV cert that triggers this SmartScreen popup. And you'd still need self-signed certs for dev/CI.
