Copy to Program Files under Windows Vista/7
原标题:

I have written a wizard in C++ which installs some files to the program files folder under windows. As I understand, I need Admin rights to write to program files under Vista/7. So my question is: Is there a way to turn on Admin rights while the application is running respectively only for one wizard page? Or do I have to start another process with Admin rights for this one wizard page?

Typically you have a shield logo d button and then shell out to another process whose manifest requests elevation.

But really it sounds like you re writing an installer so you should use something designed for that like WiX.
