[email protected] fails to call UAC for Admin credentials

[evazquez00]

Bug Report

Package Name: virtualbox-with-extension-pack-np v7.0.12

Current Behaviour

Fresh install on a new laptop. Installing from User (not Admin) PowerShell.

Other app installs such as VSCode and VCRedist call /request UAC input as expected (pop-up prompt for Allow /Deny).

PS C:> scoop install virtualbox-with-extension-pack-np Installing 'virtualbox-with-extension-pack-np' (7.0.12) [64bit] from nonportable bucket Loading VirtualBox-7.0.12-159484-Win.exe from cache Checking hash of VirtualBox-7.0.12-159484-Win.exe ... ok. Loading Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-7.0.12.vbox-extpack from cache Checking hash of Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-7.0.12.vbox-extpack ... ok. Running installer script... ERROR virtualbox-with-extension-pack-np requires admin rights to install

When run from an Admin level PowerShell window, it does install, but it sets Admin permissions in the folder tree so "scoop update *" fails.

Expected Behaviour

Standard Windows 11 UAC pop-up to grant privilege.
