Help! problem abou install on vista

kinki kids · 19th December 2006, 01:31

My program need a dirver to run, so it must run as a administrator, but how can i set my program "run this program as a administrator"?

Does NSIS support this function?

Make sure you use NSIS version v2.22 or higher and then add the line blow to your script...

RequestExecutionLevel admin

For the rest, see your own quote

RequestExecutionLevel admin

using this command can elevate setup.exe's privileges really, but can't elevate my program.

After installed, it can't run unless manually enable the option of "Run as a administrator".

Embed a manifest in your program as well. For more details, see MSDN.

Just to be sure,

If I use "RequestExecutionLevel admin" I do not need the .manifest file anymore ? I am talking about the setup file made in NSIS, not the program it installs.

Thanks.

That's correct. That command adds the manifest.
