VB.NET Elevated Prompt

Some times you need your application to launch with elevated permissions (UAC).

This can be accomplished by changing the following line in your .NET Projects app.manifest file:

<requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false" />

to

<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />

NOTE: You can open the app.manifest in the code editor by going to your projects properties, then selecting Application and clicking the View Windows Settings button.
