EPM Service Account Breaks User Context In Apps

Hi,

I am working with a customer who is wanting to make use of EPM for their developer team to run some applications with elevated permissions. They have noticed that when elevating certain applications with EPM that a service account is used (see MEM\AzureAD_AdeleVance_$ below), which therefore runs the app with a new user profile, removing things like user preferences, context and also breaks some apps that rely on domain permissions/credentials.  

 

From my testing, this service account only seems to be used by EPM when elevating already installed applications, not application installers. Is this by design and is there a possible workaround that avoids EPM using this service account?
