The "HumanPresenceSettings" instance I returned through this method, 'humanPresenceSettings=await HumanPresenceSettings. GetCurrentSettings Asynchronous ()', can read the relevant settings. However, when I subscribe to 'HumanPresenceSettings. SetingsChanged' or call the 'HumanPresenceSettings. updateSetes()' method, it throws an exception 'Access is denied.' (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)). What else do I need to do?

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!
What is your Windows system version? Can this behavior be reproduced on other devices?
Thank you

2025-02-21T03:11:05.38+00:00 Hello @charles yu ,
Your code requires a specific device with HumanPresence to test, and my device does not have this function.
I suggest that you might need to open a support ticket for this. Please contact our paid support at MS Support. You will get 1:1 support on that. Select Developer Tools -> Windows UWP Development -> Windows Universal App Dev -> Devices and Sensors Development in the support page and you could contact the team. Please kindly note that your support ticket will be free if it is Microsoft's issue.
Thank you.
