I'm trying to add an application manifest that requires elevation to my .NET 2.0 EXE. I've done that for a simple EXE and it worked without any problems, but on this more complex EXE it's not working.
My EXE has a config file and a lot of dependencies of other DLLs in my solution.
When I start the EXE, I get a SideBySide error saying "Activation context generation failed for "C:\MyCompany.MyProduct.WinUI.exe".Error in manifest or policy file "C:\MyCompany.MyProduct.WinUI.exe.Config" on line 1. Invalid Xml syntax.
"
What does my config file have to do with the manifest file? Here is my manifest:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<asmv1:assembly manifestVersion="1.0" xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
xmlns:asmv1="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1"
xmlns:asmv2="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<assemblyIdentity version="2.10.0.0" name="MyCompany.MyProduct.WinUI"/>
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v2">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false" />
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
</asmv1:assembly>
