Launching UI Mode on Windows from Administrator Shell Crashes · Issue #36714 · microsoft/playwright · GitHub

Please update to v1.54.2 - this will fix it.

1.46.0

Open a Playwright repository on Windows (can use the Playwright example repo)
npm i
Open an administrator command prompt
Launch UI mode npx playwright test --ui
Things work as expected (assuming the version stays at 1.45)
Upgrade playwright version to >=1.46
Open an administrator command prompt
Launch UI mode npx playwright test --ui
Playwright fails to launch/crashes

Playwright UI mode should work on elevated or regular shells on Windows like it did pre-1.46.0

Playwright crashes with this error:

This happens on every version I tested 1.46 and after, even latest.
