Can I somehow call the UWP launcher from a Windows Forms Application?
I would like to open the Windows settings with the launcher. It is a one-liner in UWP. Docu: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/launch-resume/launch-settings-app
bool result = await Windows.System.Launcher.LaunchUriAsync(new Uri("ms-settings:privacy-webcam"));
How can I do this from a Windows Form application?
An answer of How to open display settings in Windows 10(Pogrammatically, specifically using C#)? points out to use Process, but this only seems to work under Win10, not with Win11 anymore.: https://stackoverflow.com/a/51276033/356726
Process.Start("ms-settings:display");
The RunDLL solution seems to be a workaround: https://stackoverflow.com/a/58260947/356726
But any chance to use the launcher in Win Forms?
