  1. Resolution Note:

    This is by design. On UWP, you can switch between development and non-development builds via build configuration option in Visual Studio. Debug & Release configurations represent development build, and Master configuration represents a non-development build. For UWP, the only thing that the "Development build" checkbox controls is "DEVELOPMENT_BUILD" define for your C# scripts and packages.

    This is also applicable to other platforms that allow you to change build configuration separately from development build checkbox. For instance, if you check "Create Visual Studio Solution" when building for Windows Standalone player, you will be able to observe the same behaviour in Visual Studio as on UWP.
