I have an old service manual app for my old car (1999) that comes in a XP virtual machine.

Yeah, we still have some XP in a local LAN in the field... I suppose those will stop working first, when the hardware says: "until here and no more"

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Still have one laptop, used to launch super old industrial programs to give support to customers with old devices.

Nope - but I'm interested to know your thinking

food => beet
limited edition => LE
flier (def) => beetle (some of them, I think)

Good effort I'm tempted to let you have it

I was working with "LE" or "ED" for "limited edition" but got nowhere.
So what was it?

In the "old" days, you "clicked" (mouse); or perhaps double-clicked.
In UWP, we don't have (much of) a mouse; we have a "pointer"; and we "Tap" or double-tap; which generally can also be handled via Click. (The trolls get excited when you suggest tapping instead of clicking in certain instances)
Now the UWP double-tap, is actually a triple-tap: first the (single) Tap fires (if implemented); then the double-tap (if implemented). So, if you plan to handle both; you need to be aware of both.
My scenario was that if one Tapped a particular user control, it was "selected"; tap it again, and it became unselected.
I decided that a double-tap would select / deselect all of the same type. So, what happens now it, the first tap selects / deselects; then the Double-Tap sender is the original One-Tap sender which is now selected / deselected and enabling a cascade of the original intent.
(If you implement single-tap and not double-tap, all double taps become multiple single taps; but the double-tap does not override a single-tap. And implementing a drag, required implementing a "pointer pressed" versus a Tap)
Seems totally natural, somehow.

I dunno man. For any fan of Spy Thrillers, double-tapping has a whole other meaning. I think you might have to be careful where you say something like "Just double-tap it!", just like when meeting your friend Jack at the airport it might not we wise to say "Hi, Jack".

His signature clearly explains he is against that practice - it is also less defendable in court.

OK, Let me be sure I have this straight. If you implement both tap and double tap, and then you double tap the control, it raises the tap event and then the double tap event?
How is your code supposed to respond to the double tap appropriately if the single tap also happens, and happens first?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I've never worked on this kind of interface but am keen to guess.
I assume the double tap has to undo the effect of the single tap when necessary. The generator of the double tap appears to run a timer that raises the double tap event so that the recipient doesn't have to do this. Presumably the single tap event is raised first so that the user doesn't have to wait for the timeout, which could be annoying.

Yes; (single) tapped fires first and then double-tap fires; if both are implemented.
Double tap may or may not care what happens in single tap; that's up to the programmer.
I think we're used to thinking as "click" and double-click as being mutually exclusive. At one time, I think we may have had only single clicks, and we had to do the timing ourselves and decide when it should be handled as a double.

You totally lost me with all the tap dancing. Luckily, I do not do UWP.

Assumption only - I have not touched UWP.
There should be a time setting between single and double tap!
If you get a single tap then the state should toggle.

You're assuming this particular behavior is undesirable.
As I explained, it's doing exactly what I want it to do even though it doesn't fit a particular "mental model".
I got the same behavior on my Surface (touch pad) and my PC (mouse). Tap once: select "tapped" item; double-tap: select "that" item, and all others of the same type (with the understanding that "that" item was actually selected on the first tap, and the rest on the second tap i.e. the double tap event).
By changing "settings", you're implying I need to favor one event over the other, when in fact I need both. (That's the Zen part  )
