This is by design, and this is no new behaviour. As soon as an admin account logs in, seteuid uses the elevated token. Cygwin is doing that since 2015. After all, from an ssh session there would be *no* chance to run administrative tasks if the user would only get a non-elevated token. There's no way to switch to the elevated token from an ssh session. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Cygwin Maintainer
