I'm not sure this is required. This is one of the privileges which is
enabled automatically on usage if it's present in the token and not
marked as "deny only". UAC removes the privilege entirely from the
token, so you can't enable it in that case.
Yes, looking into this nonsense a bit more, that's correct.
I'll change this to just log the availability of that privilege.
