ISUWP08

InstallShield 2016

ISUWP08 applies to UWP app scenarios.

Message (Error)

File [1] in Component [2] is an application executable file that requires elevated privileges. Windows Store does not allow applications that require administrative privileges.

[1] is the name of a file in the project.

[2] is the name of a component in the project.

Description

ISUWP08 checks for the presence of applications that require elevated privileges.

Corrective Action

Remove the requirement for elevated privileges. An app may be using elevated privileges to subvert best-practices about handling files or registry keys, and such subversion will not work in a UWP app.
