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.
