In addition, when an application launches on Microsoft Windows 10/8.1/7, User Account Control (UAC) determines whether to grant the application administrator privileges and displays your company as the publisher when confirming elevation. Application ManifestsThe default TestStand User Interface application binary files include manifests that instruct the UAC to execute the application without virtualization and without requiring administrative privileges. With LabVIEW, you can specify a custom manifest for built applications. With LabWindows/CVI, you can specify a manifest for built applications. When you build the application, refer to the documentation for the application development environment you used for more information about how to include a manifest.Making Dialog Boxes Modal to TestStandParent topic: Creating Custom User Interfaces
