I have added a manifest to the Project but it doesn't.

The app I want to install in my customers computer is a WPF app. I use a
custom action to set some data configuration issues in the config file and
there is a VistaDB database that should be installed.

I have found that most of my customers hate computers so the installation
should be clean and easy.

I have solved the first part of my nightmares (I hope), I set
InstallPrivileges="elevated" AdminImage="yes" in the Package and
Execute="deferred" Impersonate="no" in my Custom Actions definition. Custom
Actions Run as Administrator (They ask for permissions but work), thanks to
Pally Sandher!

The second part is to set the "Run as Administrator" bit to the myApp.exe
after it is installed in the target machine.

I have included a manifest with
         <requestedExecutionLevel  level="requireAdministrator"
uiAccess="false" />        
But it doesn't work.

I wonder if a custom action after the installation process could do it.

Any Idea?

This can be done in the applications manifest.

Set the requireAdministrator execution level.

Subject: [WiX-users] Run as Administrator

Is there a way to set the Run always as administrator to the app
executable
file.

 

Thanks
