Brief description of the issue:
When launching flight simulator, I receive a notification from windows telling me that a program is trying to make unauthorized access to files that it should not have access to. If it was flight simulator that was requesting access to %USERPROFILE%/Videos, then I would be more likely to add an exception, but the access is coming from svchost.dll and I’m not comfortable allowing that.
Along these lines, Flight Simulator isn’t requesting permissions to access the videos library either, so its probably expected that these requests would be blocked, but either way this should be addressed as someone may be more likely to turn off malware protection because of noisy issues like this one.

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
In the windows settings app, search for “Controlled Folder Access”, and enable that. I believe the Videos and Documents folders are added by default as I don’t recall explicitly changing anything in those settings. With Controlled Folder Access enabled, then launch flight simulator.
PC specs and/or peripheral set up if relevant:
