Hello.
Recently I ran against the same problem to launch my bundle exe elevated from the beginning. I saw your discussion with some tips what to do, but even more issues appeared. 1) >You can embed a custom manifest to a pre-built executable using the MT.exe tool. >mt.exe" -manifest "setup.exe.manifest" -outputresource:"setup.exe" I tried to apply manifest to my exe and as result I got "empty" file but with manifest that prompts elevation on start. My bundle have (had before manifest application) couple embedded files as payloads including BA dll, license description files and custom schemas for .Net prerequisite screen, so now I have extraction error: [1120:17B0][2011-10-03T13:15:30]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to extract all files from container. [1120:18B4][2011-10-03T13:15:30]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to wait for operation complete. [1120:18B4][2011-10-03T13:15:30]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to open container. [1120:18B4][2011-10-03T13:15:30]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to open attached container. [1120:18B4][2011-10-03T13:15:30]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to open attached UX container. [1120:18B4][2011-10-03T13:15:30]: Error 0x80004005: Failed to initialize core. I get stuck with this approach. 2) IBootstrapperApplicationEngine->Elevate() What is the right way to use this method? Currently when this method is executed in BA process it returns "true" immediately and processes further, but elevation is performed in Engine process, so I assume it is the only process that elevates. I need the same for BA! 3) I also tried to launch bundle with Verb "runas" from BA, but due to exact GUIDs and user of first and second(elevated) bundle launchings they have the same extract location for payloads so the second begins to work when first performed clean up on shutting down O_o. So here I have bunch of errors with missing files :'( Thus I have a simple question: how to elevate BA?
