Summary of the issue:
In Windows Console on Windows 10 version 1803:
At least for now, it may be worth considering limiting UIA by default to Windows 10 1809 and later, where it works very well. Advanced users on earlier Windows versions can always enable it if they wish.
Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:
This PR changes the functionality of the automatic Windows Console support option: UIA is enabled on Windows 10 1809 and later, legacy otherwise. The user guide and what's new have been updated accordingly.
Testing performed:
Tested that UIA console is still automatically enabled on Windows 10 version 1903.
Known issues with pull request:
None.
Change log entry:
