So the capability of the manifest is to either:

1. Specify that the executable does not require elevation.
2. Specify the the executable will require elevation, in which case Windows
will raise the elevation dialog before launching.

But I guess there is no way to achieve the following?

3. Executable will require elevation. Executable is trusted and so Windows
will elevate the executable without prompting the user?

No way to achieve option 3?

Thanks,

Joseph Geretz
