Redmon redirecting to .exe as 'System' user. and it's running in the background. Exe is running is background so not working

I've never had this happen to me, but found this stackoverflow thread:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48208509/in-windows-10-redirect-port-monitor-redmon-run-as-user-doesnt-work?rq=1

It looks like this happens on Windows 10 sometimes, but no one has identified what the cause is. If anyone has any info or insights, I'd appreciate a comment here.

possibly related to #16

Am also having this issue on a windows 10 machine. The PDFScribe process starts suspended as system user and then disappears without generating a PDF output file.

Confirmed as of Windows 10, version 1903, Redmon no longer seems to be able to launch PdfScribe.exe as the interactive user. I found this to be true on systems upgraded to 1903 with PdfScribe already installed, and for new PdfScribe installs on 1903. I will update the README to list this as a known issue, and begin looking into what can be reasonably done to fix this (if anything at all).

Was related to #16 ; I have successfully installed clawmon and configured it to pipe the output to PDFScribe.exe and everything works as expected. It looks like some work just needs to be done on the implementation of redmon for PDFScribe.

Just another datapoint - I have a Win 10 install that just upgraded to 1903 last week, and is not exhibiting this issue. At this point, I don't know why.

I tried this on two different computer using Win 10 with same version 1903. This work well on one computer but not on the other one. The issue is same as reported before.

I confirm this issue is still present. In my case, only UWP application that use the new print dialog are failing. All other aplications using the old-school print dialog seem to work just fine.
