The missing of the requestedExecutionLevel manifest makes TextPad unusable under Vista!
If you forget to launch TextPad as an administrator files changed under C:\Program Files are silently duplicated into the VirtualStore.
I would expect an error message.
Vista is out for more than 14 month. Windows 7 Beta is out...
Why isn't it possible to recognize UAC and just to add an asInvoker-Manifest to the EXE?
Why is the registered user forced to hack the internal RT_MANIFEST resource by its own?

why isn't the vista bug in the FAQ?
thanks - this thread explained something that's been bugging me for the day. However a bug as painful as this should be flagged in the FAQ as a minimum - the professional thing to do as a firm would be to flag the issue and avoid selling the product to users of an OS in which it doesn't work properly.
