In Visual Basic, the project properties are structured a little differently.  If you find this question and you're in VB in VS2010, follow these instructions to generate an *app.manifest* file.

1. To create an **app.manifest** file, go to your project, and select properties.  Then click on **View Window Settings**, under the *Application* tab.
 * ![ViewWindowSettings][ViewWindowSettings]
2. This should generate and open the **app.manifest** file, which is saved in your **My Project Folder**
 * ![app.manifest][app.manifest]

I have a WPF application that I want to make it able to start always as an Adminstrator. I've been reading a lot about it and it seems that I have to create my own manifest file and pass it to the Application properties so that on runtime it starts as an Administrator.

The application itself loads a file and sometimes the file might demand administrator access so it can be modified. That is why I am looking for a way after the Application gets installed to be able to always get started in administrator mode.
