How to Fix UAC Prompt Showing up In System Storage?

Question

I would like to ask if someone from Microsoft can please look into the update KB5074105 because after installing it my Storage settings started to behave differently and I am not sure if this is expected. When I open Storage it always launches with administrator rights even though it never did that before and it feels unusual. It makes the system look like something changed in a way that does not match how it worked before.

I also noticed that some parts of the Temporary files cleanup no longer work because certain items cannot be removed anymore and they stay there every time I try to clean them. Before this update everything worked normally so I believe the issue might be related to KB5074105.

I am writing this only to let you know what I experienced and to ask if this update can be checked. I appreciate the work that goes into Windows and I hope this information helps in case more users are seeing the same behavior. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
