problem in raising privilege level using manifest resource

[erajaysharma]

This issue is in Vista.
I used XML files(one for DLLs, other for EXEs) ane embeded them in my
EXEs and all DLLs ....actually i want to spawn a third party setup
from found new hardware...but an error message is shown "illegel
value: requestedrunlevel"
and setup failed to spawn... Someone please tell me how to elevate the
setup files so that setup can be spawned from found new hardware...

I used following code:

<?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="temp10" type="win32"/>
<description>Privelidged</description>
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges>
<requestedExecutionLevel
level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="true"/>
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
</assembly>

Thanks and Regards,
Ajay

It makes no sense to embed this in your program, it has to be embedded in the third party
setup.

Sure about that?
How did you apply the manifest to the "third party" setup and what kind of module is it, an
exe or a dll?
