title: C# deployment project removing application manifest information
body: <p>I have been migrating our application suite from XP to Windows 7, and there is one application that requires Administrator level privileges. I have successfully added an application manifest file to the specific EXE which forces the user to run the application with elevated control (I used the 'Generic Method' in this post: <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cheller/archive/2006/08/24/718757.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://blogs.msdn.com/b/cheller/archive/2006/08/24/718757.aspx</a>).</p>
  
  <p>However, when I package this file (among other project outputs) into my deployment project (MSI), the application manifest gets completely removed and it doesn't correctly run once installed.</p>
  
  <p>Any insight on how to keep the specified application manifest to persist through the MSI?</p>
