| | Force highestAvailable manifest application to run not elevated ? Hi, Here is my problem: Application starts from HKLM/.../run key automatically under Vista OS. I want it to start that way. App has manifest with highestAvailable execution level. So if standard user logs on - app starts with no problems. But if member of administrators group logs on - according to required execution level - now app should launch elevated and UAC prevents it from starting that way putting it in blocked app list - message "windows has blocked some startup programs". Now I must do interactive actions to start application(I intend it to start automatically). The problem is that I don't need that application to start elevated - for current app tasks standard user is sufficient. Application is not developed by me so I can't change it's manifest. So how do I force highestAvailable execution level application to run as standard user always ? Maybe there are other ways to bypass UAC "windows has blocked some startup programs" by putting some exceptions ? Of course I want minimal impact on other applications. thanks Vilius |
