This happens to me at work where my user account is different from my administrator account. To fix it I have to login with my Admin account and run terminal. Then I can log back in to my standard user account and run as administrator. I used to be able to fix it by reregistering the appx as admin but that stopped working a while back

I have the same bug. Also all shells run as administrator despite that "Run this profile as Administrator" is disabled. And i don't know how to run shell as non administrator
