my question as follow:
there're various icons on the desktop, which are system icons, app icons, icons created by right-button and so on;
why only icons created by right-button can found on the path of desktop?
thank you very much, 兄じゃん

I'm most likely not your brother, and i also am not sure what you exactly mean by your question, but not everything you see on your desktop are filesystem objects, "My Computer" for example or "My Network places" aren't filesystem objects, you won't find them if you look at the directory listing of your desktop. I hope this answers your question.

thanks, since they are not filesystem objects, how explore.exe display them.
if you setup one game, for ins, World Of Warcraft, it'll produce one icon on the desktop,
this also is not filesytem object, is this?

Not only filesystem objects can be displayed by the shell, maybe read this[^] for more info.
However, games usually place links to your desktop to make it easier for the user to start them, links ARE file system objects, with .lnk as extension (so these do appear in a folder listing), i believe the shell uses the file the link is referring to to give an icon to it (so for example if the link "points at" a txt file, then you will see a text file document icon, or if the link points at WOW's executable, then the link will get the icon of WOW), also, unless you dissable this feature (i think you can do that) the shell will place a small arrow icon in the corner of the bigger icon to show you it is a link at another object and not the object itself.

Sorry, i can't read what you sent there, i tried a few encodings in my browser but nothing produced anything human-readable to me, but if it is anything than english or german (or hungarian), i won't understand it anyways.

This is not a C++ question. However, I suspect you are talking about their visibility in Windows Explorer, which is controlled by the settings you have selected. Look at the Tools -> Options selections on the menu.

OK, I think I understand what you are trying to do. These items are not icons but links, commonly known as shortcuts. I think you can access their properties through the IShellLink COM interface, but I am not sure of the exact steps required. I would suggest you try searching with Google or Bing to see if any sample code exists.

I've got this app -- that wants to run with elevated priv's.
I've added to the manifest:
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
<security>
<requestedPrivileges>
<requestedExecutionLevel level="highestAvailable" uiAccess="false">
</requestedPrivileges>
</security>
</trustInfo>
Is it possible to make the app auto-start with elevation?
The app can run without elevation... but in order to make use of some API's I need more rights.
The question -- is there a way to register the app so that it's pre-approved to run elevated? I'd like if the user can approve it once and never be asked again?
The app needs to run at the startup of the user session. I find that it won't start itself at login with this manifest.

There is an autoElevate flag but it seems that it only works for certain executables signed by Microsoft. I do not know if Microsoft plans on supporting auto-elevation for signed third-party applications.

No thats not how UAC elevation is implemented.

I looked at autoElevate -- Microsoft looks quite restrictive on that, as most of their own apps aren't allowed to use it.
Is my only recourse here to tell the user they "can't have it" unless they elevate it or disable UAC?
Are there any runtime API's which I can call to request elevation of the process? Or, is it the case that the security mode cannot change once the app has started?

In vista there are 2 modes, one is with UAC enabled (in which u r currently working) and other is UAC disabled. In 2nd case the OS will be running as without security and it will be possible for you to run ur application with required priviledges. But to make UAC disabled you need to have Admin rights. The code that you have provided is for manifest file and using this file it will prompt user to provide admin priviledges while running any application.
