问题
I am not able to run the application the Qt creator. It complains the following error:
Cannot execute '': The requested operation requires elevation
My .exe file has a Windows administrator shield symbol on it. Do I need to make a project settings changes? I am extensively using Qt File library for doing some file operations.
回答1:
What's your executable's file name? Without an embedded manifest, windows tries to be smart and wants to run executables with "install", "update", "setup", "patch", etc. in the file name as administrator. It even checks for those names within words such as "autoupdate".
The problem is that qmake/mingw doesn't embed those manifests, while MSVC does. If someone has a clean solution to that problem, I'd be interested to learn about it.

If application you develop require administrator privileges, you cannot simply run it from Qt creator, started under non privileged account.
You can run your Qt creator as Administrtor.
Or you can start your application from QtCreator using runas utility.
But in this case you would not be able to see debug output in QtCreator console window and debug application.

If the name of the exe file has some words (update, patch, ...), the Windows UAC ask for admin privilegies. The only solution is that the project generates an exe without these words.
See this: Qt Creator create exes with admin privilegies
