Hello,
I've got an application, which I'm trying to make Vista-compatible.
My problem is, there is the small four-colored UAC-Symbol on the icon of my application. This means, that my program has to be run with administrative rights.
I've spent a lot of time searching the web to find out, how Windows analyzes my program to know, it can only be run with administrative rights.
Maybe anyone of you knows, which parts of my exe-file Windows is checking to know, that there are admin-rights necessary.
(Maybe API-calls or whatever ...???)
Thank you!

I think that whenever your program needs to write to certain parts (like the "program files"-folder, and certainly the "windows"-folder), your program will need administrator-rights to be run.

Yes, i know the problem with the paths, but I found a way out of this trouble. I've generated a .manifest-File, which is setting the required User-level and now it works ...
Thank you for your help!

Did you use the ClickOnce security settings to create that manifest file? If not, do you have any more details on the process? (This type of question comes up frequently and I don't have a solid answer to give so far)

I'd heard and believed that Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
would be shipped with Windows Vista(Longhorn). Not as an
'additional' component, but, you know, already installed
so that developers don't have to nag their users to
download and install .NET Framework Redistributable.
Recently, I heard that it will NOT shipped with Windows Vista.
Is it true?

Due to an earlier posting I read in this newsgroup regarding Office 2007
beta, I downloaded it. After I DL'd it, I got an invitation from MS to
get WinVista.
I am now wondering if, since both are betas, it is best to buy a new
computer? My current computer setup is a Pentium 4, 1 gig memory, 2.66
ghz, 60-80 gig disk drive.

I am running Visual studio 2003 with framework 1.1 on a vista platform.
However it runs very slow in debug mode, especially while it is loading dlls.
What is the problem? Is there a compatibility problem between XP and Vista?
How to speed it up? If I upgrade the Visual studio 2003 to 2005, will it
solve the
problem?

Hi,
I have to develop an application which must run on .net 2.0 on a

Windows Vista? If I see the supported OS at the download page of
microsoft, Windows Vista is not in the list. Are there risks for
strange behavior under Windows Vista?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
