[check] Win 8+: inconsistent click behaviour with fullscreenapp/desktopapp and compared to Win7/8.0

[RaiMan]

I have a script that works on WinXP - Win 8. However, Win 8.1 seems to have botched everything up.

I have a very simple code snippet:

if exists(image):
    print "Found image")
    click(image)

When I run the code, I get the print statement, but the image is not clicked on. Once again, this is only failing on Win 8.1

a possible solution is to use the context menu entry "run as administrator" e.g. to start a command line window, that is then used to start the IDE or run script.
