Skaffold not working with Helm 4 (using Rancher Desktop 1.22)

I've freshly installed Rancher Desktop with bundles Helm v4.0.5. Trying to deploy a helm chart using Skaffold fails.
**Note: replacing the helm binary that comes with Rancher Desktop with a v3.x version makes Skaffold work again.**

My first try was a simple "skaffold dev" command in a non-admin shell. This led to the following error:

```
deploying "default-blueprint": Failed to install Helm plugin: Installing plugin from local directory (development mode)
Error: symlink C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Temp\skaffold-render1032218029 C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming\helm\plugins\skaffold-render1032218029: A required privilege is not held by the client.
```

So I tried running the command in an administrative shell. Unfortunately without luck, but with a different error:
