External manifest file does not work

K

I created the following file and saved it as "repair.exe.manifest" into the
folder where the program "repair.exe" (a VFP exe) resides. However elevation
prompt does not show when I start repair.exe. Did I miss anything or do
anything wrong?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity version="1.0.0.0"
processorArchitecture="X86"
name="repair.exe"
type="win32"/>
<description>elevate execution level</description>
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges>
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator"
uiAccess="false"/>
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
