I have developed one software and created setup of it.

When we install that software using setup, it will create one shortcut of it on desktop
and one shortcut of it in start menu.

Now what i want that it will show "Run as administrator" option on right click of that
"Desktop shortcut"


I want to "Run as administrator" option here.


Desktop Shortcut


I have check that it is showing this option in Program files where i have installed the software.

Not as far as I know: it's a security thing, it needs the user to approve it not the developer.
