NPP_HexEdit VS uac_no_securedesktop

There's some hope for Notepad++ HexEdit Plugin to pick up the mantra, as it's a x64 continuation of the plugin by a different developer. But I haven't tried it.

In the end if you have the time to just sit down and annotate the asm (or il) and take advantage of other tools like x64dbg etc anything can be figured out eventually. I used the same approach to figure out how an application can disable UAC prompting on the secure desktop without restarting the system and only while requested, which still seems to be pretty obscure https://github.com/adzm/uac_no_securedesktop by looking at how Microsoft's remote support tool worked. Generally f it can be done in userspace by one application, it can with another! And in the end if it's not the kernel, it's still an application, even if part of the system like uxtheme.dll for example.
