I had little shields on the Desktop Icons.. Does that mean the programs are
not code signed?

Plan A is always more effective when the device you are working on
understands that Plan B involves a larger hammer

That's an indication that the app will want to run elevated.

Hmmm
When I code sign, I don't request elevated, I don't think.

Thanks

Check your manifest settings.

Normally your app should be manifested AsInvolker for the UAC Execution
level and the installer ( SB project ) to RequireAdministrator.

See attached examples.

Does that help?

Yes, it is asinvoker.
I wonder if an old manifest would overwrite the one I manifest in SB7?

If your manifesting the app in Clarion and you have SB set to skip the file
if it is already manifested - then yes.

FWIW, I never manifest my files in Clarion.

Instead I have an external manifest file for the EXE that resides in the
development folder. That way I can see what the manifested file looks like
as I compile/run.

Then I allow SB to apply the real manifest to the file as the installer is
built since Friedrich never gets it wrong<g>.

If you have an "asInvoker" manifested application and you do not have any
external manifest in-place, make sure that you do not have set the
"Privilege Level" in the Shortcut properties (Compatibility tab) to "Run the
program as an administrator".
