Hi folks,
as I read in the WiX 3.6 Beta release notes, burn does support package
ref-counting now, which according to my understanding should guarantee, that

I agree with that and I was searching for a while to find a programmatic way
to reqest elevation from .Net so that I can force the BA to elevate right
