Could you include a manifest with the application to require elevation/run as admin privileges ?

Subject: [WiX-users] Shortcut Element & Run as administrator I want to create a shortcut to point to my executable. The shortcut will be used in cases where the .exe needs to run with elevate privileges. I don't see any attribute(s) in the schema that can allow me to create the shortcut with this flag. So, is it up to me to deliver the .LNK file myself? Need to take care of delivering the appropriate shortcut depending on OS architecture (i.e. Program Files versus Program Files (x86)) since my product is WOW64. Thanks. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
