I'm writing an app that allows you to script the buttons from a wiimote into actions on your PC. It currently supports all of the features of the main remote control, except for the speaker.

Now, I'm running in to trouble when I run it on Vista with UAC turned on.

Any time a UAC'd window has focus, my app fails to move the mouse successfully. For instance, when an installer is run, I have to navigate it with the keyboard.

1. Will running the app as administrator solve my problem? (At one point in time, I was able to successfully move the mouse over a UAC-password-entry box)

2. How do I build a manifest that will tell windows to "run as administrator"?

3. How do I embed this manifest into my app, if I'm strongly naming my assembly?

4. How do I sign my application with an Authenticode cert?

EDIT:

Ok, so after some more extensive research, I have found:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb756929.aspx

<requestedExecutionLevel
    level="asInvoker|highestAvailable|requireAdministrator"
    uiAccess="true|false"/>

However, the article says:

Applications with the uiAccess flag set to true must be Authenticode signed to start properly. In addition, the application must reside in a protected location in the file system. \Program Files\ and \windows\system32\ are currently the two allowable protected locations.

I have edited the question to reflect the new developments.
