Request elevated privileges using application manifest

Open Kostassoid opened this issue 4 years ago • 0 comments

Currently the app will notify the user if the application is not running with elevated privileges. A better UX could be to actually request these privileges automatically using application manifests.

Sadly, rust does not currently support this. Relevant ticket in rust-lang: https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/issues/721

There's a way to workaround that: https://crates.io/crates/winres Should be simple enough to do for local builds. The potential challenge is the CI.
