How to add a manifest file to a project in visual studio 2010?

Question

I am trying to add a manifest file to a project with Visual Studio 2010, so as to set the project to be compatible with Windows 7 and to disable the virtualization.

Answer 1

A method I use is to set the project properties / Manifest Tool / Input & Output / Embed Manifest" setting to "No". Then, in my RC file add this line: CREATEPROCESS_MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID RT_MANIFEST "MyProject.exe.manifest"
