[WiX-users] Force msi to ask for admin priviliges
Hi all, I created a setup with custom actions which copies and deletes our license files. When I start the msi with a bootstraper (Setup.exe) it is asked for administration priviliges and the custom actions run fine, but when i uninstall our application over Control Panel - Programs - programs and features the msi starts to run but rollback after executing the delete custom action. The Error is System.UnauthorizedAccessException. I think the msi does not run with admin priviliges. My question is, how can I force the msi to ask for admin priviliges before start? I tried InstallPrivileges=elevated InstallScope=perMachine an AdminImage=no as properties. But this doesn't work.
