Windows 11 24H2/ShellHost: mark "Control Center Window" class as good UIA window (#16370) Closes #16348 Summary of the issue: In Windows 11 Version 24H2 (2024 Update and Server 2025), mouse and touch interaction cannot be used in quick settings (Windows+A). Description of user facing changes Mouse and touch interaction can be used to navigate and interact with quick settings, cast, and similar elements. Description of development approach Quick settings component (including cast) was separated from ShellExperienceHost.exe (now ShellHost.exe) in Windows 11 Version 24H2. Therefore, an app alias will be used to handle this case - "ControlCenterWindow" is marked as UIA, allowing mouse and touch interaction.
