How to Create a Shortcut that's Run as Administrator
I have several shortcuts for my app. For one of them, I need it with the option to always Run as Administrator. Is there a way to do that?

You will need to create a manifest file that gets installed to the same location as the file that the shortcut points to: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb756929.aspx
