Description
The input element for choosing a file works but for choosing a directory fails silently in UWP. I tried with latest stable and canary runtimes in the win32 sample app and the UWP WinUI2 sample app and found that the runtime doesn't make a difference, choosing a directory fails silently in UWP and works in Win32.
<!-- Fails in UWP WinUI2, works elsewhere -->
<input type="file" id="FileUpload1" webkitdirectory multiple />
<input type="file" id="FileUpload4" webkitdirectory />
<!-- Works -->
<input type="file" id="FileUpload2" />
<input type="file" id="FileUpload3" multiple />
