My application has an installer built in installshield. But for proper working of installation process in vista Win 7 etc. the installer should be run as administrator. (Even though the user has admin previlege he should select the 'Run as Administrator' option in the menu on rightclicking the installer exe)
How can I make my installer to prompt that it should be always run as administrator.
Thanks in advance...
First Option Open elevated Command Prompt. To do so, type "CMD" in Start menu or Start screen search box, and then simultaneously press Ctrl+Shift+Enter keys. Click Yes button when you see the UAC prompt. In the Command Prompt, navigate to the directory that the install file is located in and run the install file.
With InstallShield 2008 (14.0) go to Media -> Releases then select tab Setup.exe and change the item Required Execution Level to Administrator
