Hi,

Why would a program fail to run with the message "Error execution program"
when it is UAC manifested and code-signed, but run OK if only code-signed ?

#embed UAC manifest into "C:\Pstellar\rap_install7\PBS.exe"
(PBS-tillægsmodul) [asInvoker] [Windows 7] [Skip]
#code-sign application "C:\pstellar\rap_install7\PBS.exe" (Stellar
tillægsmodul) [Skip]

Cheers,
/Poul

Is the source program (PBS.exe) on your development computer possibly
already
1. code-signed ?
2. protected by Armadillo ?

Try compiling PBS.exe again and then recompile your installer.

Hi Jan,

1. No
2. No

Same result after recompiling.

My bet is that it's the special character "æ" in "tillægsmodul" (in the
manifest and/or the code-signature).

Hi Friedrich,

You are absolutely right: removing the special characters in the
UAC-manifest command did the trick.

Thanks alot.
