[RESOLVED] understanding token privileges of vb6 projects in Vista
I am trying to understand what type of token (user/admin/highest) VB6 apps are requiring when compiling and running under visra/7
Normally, XP applications have a user token, to get the full admin privileges, they should be run as administrator
But here is the problem:
i compiled the same project by changing each time to company tag (wich will be visible in the version info resource) . i left the first project as my VB6 default configurations. and i compiled a second time by changing the company name , saying MS.
Once compiled and sent to a windows 7 machine (i am using skype by the way)
the first one , with the default data, runs normally, without poping up the UAC.
The second one asked for admin privileges with the UAC.
i didn't changed the manifest with an external tool like reshacker . it was just that ..
Any idea guys ??
