Hi All,
I have written a progam that currently installs to the windows 7 '\program files(x86)\' folder.
The program creates some editable text files that store its configuration settings during startup and then changes them when you change settings in the program to reload them next time you run the program.
However, and but of course!, Windows is stopping the program creating the files due to administrator rights.
Is there a way to edit the manifest in the program exe to require the program to ask to run as an administrator?
The Anolis Resource Editor is showing that the manifest for the DBPro program file looks like this:
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges>
<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"></requestedExecutionLevel>
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
</assembly>
As I understand it:
<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"></requestedExecutionLevel>
Needs to be:
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false"></requestedExecutionLevel>
And that would sort out my problems, but I don't know how to change it and leave the file working afterwards. Can it be done in BBPro, or do I need an external program. (I haven't found documentation showing it can be done from in the Anolis Resource Editor).
Much Thanks
Ben
