Understanding App Isolation Behavior in MSIX: Issue with System State Restoration After Crash

We have an application built with .NET Forms, while the security components (DLLs) are developed in C++. Recently, we packaged our application using MSIX (App Isolation) and signed it with a self-signed certificate. The Application launches and functions as expected.

However, when we introduce an intentional crash (e.g., a null pointer exception), the system does not restore the changes made by the application, such as hiding the taskbar. Our understanding was that App Isolation would help revert any system modifications after a crash, but it seems this isn't the case.

Is this expected behavior for App Isolation in MSIX, or are we missing something in our configuration? Any insights on ensuring system state restoration would be appreciated.
