Hi @chobyeongseong,
No, InstallShield only add the execution level setting for the InstallShield generated setup.exe.
if you want to add to the payload files, you have to embed the manifest file or need to change the option in visual studio linker while building the application.

Hi @chobyeongseong,
You can change the "Required Execution Level" setting for the setup.exe to "Administrator" to execute the setup exe in Administrator mode.
More information can be found at the below link:

Is it possible to set administrator rights related to the files installed by
executing the configuration file other than the configuration file created by installshield?
What I was wondering about is whether the internal files installed together
with the generated config file will run as administrator.
