Answer 1

Even with the broadFileSystemAccess capability you won't be able to access an arbitrary path on the file system with ordinary APIs, you have to use the StorageFile/StorageFolder APIs instead. From the screenshot I see you are trying to read the image using OpenCV, so instead of using a path, you will need to read the image using a StorageFile and use a different imread overload which accepts a byte array or stream. Alternatively, you could copy the file from the given path to ApplicationData.Current.LocalFolder which is accessible using any API, including imread
