As far as I know Microsoft is no longer supporting WinAppDriver. Although their website does point to it : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/test/use-ui-automation-to-test-your-code?view=vs-2022 - I think this is out of date and have requested they have a look and confirm.
On the Appium forums there is a hunt for someone to maintain YWinAppDriver as a replacement:

We did search for a free library and FlaUI and pywinauto looked to be good options. But the latest releases for those libraries are several years old so we were unable to have confidence that there would be features/bug fixes in the years to come.

Hi @bfransen ,
Thank you for your response.
Yes, coded UI is deprecated, and we are thinking migrating it to a reliable free tool where we can expect the tool to be in active development. What I conclude from the second link which you provided that currently the maintenance is paused for winappdriver. In that case we can't use Winapdriver as we expect the tool to provide at least features/bug fixes for next 10 years.
Do you know any other reliable free library for desktop UI test automation? Currently we are considering FLAUI.
With warm regards,

Thank you @bfransen
FLAUI lib, i personally used and found to be very good. But again as you mentioned we are too reluctant to use FLAUI or Wnappdriver due to missing updates in recent times.

I was able to make tests running on Windows Server 2022, using Appium + Appium Windows Driver. Had to uninstall WinAppDriver latest prerelease version 1.2.99 and install v1.2.1
