how to embed manifest.exe
Hi,
In my msi project installed location, i want to launch a .exe file which is created by my installer with 'admin privilages'.
I came to know that my issue will be resolved by embeding a 'manifest' file with that application.exe.
Can anyone tell me how to embed a manifest file with the installer created .exe file.......

Hi, as I did several days ago, just create a manifest file named as application.exe.manifest, VS2005 will automatically embed it. Some formal articles told you also need to add it in resource file, but I tried and it seems not that necessary.
