Applications created with Windows Custom Client Builder fail to run with the following event log error.

Activation context generation failed for "C:\Users\x\AppData\Local\rustdesk.\File.exe". There is an error in the manifest or policy file "C:\Users\x\AppData\Local\rustdesk.\File.exe" on line 2. The security element appears as a child of urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1^assembly, but this version of Windows does not support it.

Thanks.

During my review, I discovered that if "Always run as Administrator: Yes" is selected in the generator, the following lines are added to end the manifest of the extracted exe file:

This issue prevents the app from working.

This option is currently broken unfortunately. Someone will need to figure out how to get it working again.

Hello Bryan,

I've figured out the problem with running as administrator. If the last characters in the generated build file name end with "install" or "qs," the program runs itself in install mode or as administrator.

Please see the lines below.

5481c300b2/src/core_main.rs (L139)

5481c300b2/libs/portable/src/main.rs (L149)

In this case, you should remove the "Run as administrator" option, as it completely prevents the program from running. For those who want to install the program directly or run it as administrator once, we need to make adjustments accordingly.

Even though I'm not a programmer, I can be a good debugger :)

I would remove the feature as the service is still installed as SYSTEM, therefore have Administrator privileges.
