Unable to write eventlog after configuring desktop2:DesktopEventLogging

[chiluap]

I configuered the following section in in my Package.appxmanifest:

<Package
  xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10"
  xmlns:uap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/uap/windows10"
  xmlns:rescap="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/foundation/windows10/restrictedcapabilities"
  xmlns:desktop2="http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/desktop/windows10/2"
  IgnorableNamespaces="uap rescap desktop2">
<Extensions>
		<desktop2:Extension Category="windows.desktopEventLogging">
			<desktop2:DesktopEventLogging AppName="MyApp">
				<desktop2:EventMessageFiles>
					<desktop2:File Path="logfolder\myapp.log"/>
				</desktop2:EventMessageFiles>
				<desktop2:TypesSupported>
					<desktop2:TypeSupported Value="EVENTLOG_ERROR_TYPE"/>
					<desktop2:TypeSupported Value="EVENTLOG_WARNING_TYPE"/>
					<desktop2:TypeSupported Value="EVENTLOG_INFORMATION_TYPE"/>
				</desktop2:TypesSupported>
			</desktop2:DesktopEventLogging>
		</desktop2:Extension>
	</Extensions>

when I try to write to the eventlog i get the following errors (after installation of the package)

Ausnahme ausgelöst: "System.Security.SecurityException" in Microsoft.Win32.Registry.dll Ausnahme ausgelöst: "System.Security.SecurityException" in Microsoft.Win32.Registry.dll Ausnahme ausgelöst: "System.Security.SecurityException" in System.Diagnostics.EventLog.dll

System.Security.SecurityException: "The source was not found, but some or all event logs could not be searched. To create the source, you need permission to read all event logs to make sure that the new source name is unique. Inaccessible logs: Security, State."

Am I missing something here? The documentation is not very clear about how to configure event log access.

Also, the documentation states the extension belongs under Package>Applications>Application>Extensions>desktop2:Extension>desktop2:DesktopEventLogging>
but when I put it there I get an validation error:

Schweregrad Code Beschreibung Projekt Datei Zeile Unterdrückungszustand
Fehler Validierungsfehler. error 80080204: App manifest validation error: Line 40, Column 29, Reason: The "windows.desktopEventLogging" extension should be declared under extensions. MyApp C:[snip]\bin\x64\Debug\AppxManifest.xml 1
