VpnManagementAgent::GetProfilesAsync does not work in a Win32 app, but works in a UWP app

[overthro]

Describe the bug

VpnManagementAgent::GetProfilesAsync is supposed to return a list of your VPN profiles. But it gives me an empty vector in C++/WinRT. Running as an administrator does not help.

Steps to reproduce the bug

#include <winrt/Windows.Foundation.Collections.h>
#include <winrt/Windows.Networking.Vpn.h>

using namespace winrt::Windows::Networking::Vpn;

int main() {
    winrt::init_apartment();

    VpnManagementAgent vpn{};
    auto profiles = vpn.GetProfilesAsync().get();
    printf("Found %d profiles\n", profiles.Size());
}

Expected behavior

The very same function however returns all my vpn profiles in this UWP app.

Edit. I thought I'd add that strangely VpnManagementAgent::AddProfileFromObjectAsync works, if I run as administrator. VpnManagementAgent::GetProfilesAsync seems to be have faulty logic. I suspect that its logic presumes that a caller is always a UWP app and therefore not only has a package manifest but also has the required capabilities declared, which will not be true, if it is a Win32 app.

We reached out to the owner of this API who confirmed it doesn't work in Win32, we don't have a timeframe of when or if this will be supported in the future.
