    Description

      Description:
      When launching the Screen Capture Example, it immediately shows a modal error dialog saying "Failed to grab the screen". This dialog reappears approximately every second.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Build nd run the Screen Capture Example 
      1. Observe the behavior immediately after the application starts.

      Expected Result:

      • The application should capture the screen content as soon as it launches and display it in the UI.

      Actual Result:

      • A modal error dialog appears with the message: "Failed to grab the screen".
      • The dialog keeps reappearing every second, making the application unusable.
      • No screen content is ever captured or displayed.

      Note: Nothing Unusual in logs. See the attached video.
