I used the application manifest file as described here to have a part of my application running with elevated privileges (which it needs).
So when needed, the main program just invokes a small assembly using Process.Start which then handles the task for which admin rights are required.
However, how can I do the same thing on Windows XP?
It seems XP just ignores this manifest and runs the small assembly in the current user context.
