In Windows 7, you can set a property of a shortcut to "Run as Administrator", so that the application is invoked with Administrator privileges or the user is asked for an admin account.
I know I can request/force Administrator privileges with a manifest file for my application, but I need to set the privileges for applications that are not mine. As Installer Software I use SetUp Factory 8. It will create a shortcut but doesn't set "Run as Administrator".
So far I set the option with every customer manually after install but that is a lot of work.
How can I set "Run as Administrator" for application shortcuts via a program/script (like editing the shortcut) or in any other way.
