registry

Hello, have build that simple app with VS2010 which adds a registry key in HKCU/SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/WINDOWS/CURRENT VERSION/RUN and prints a message when it runs.

Here is the code :

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <windows.h>
#include <winbase.h>
 
void regedit();
 
int main()
{
    regedit();
    MessageBox(NULL,"test","TEST",MB_OK);
    return 0;
}
 
void regedit()
{
 
LPCTSTR regPathRun = TEXT("SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run");
int ro, sizeOfPath;
char buffer[300];
HKEY hKey;
char *appPath;
char finalPath[200];
 
    ro = 0;
    if(ro == 0)
    {
                 
        /* Get current Directory.*/
        sizeOfPath = GetModuleFileName(NULL,buffer,300);
             
        //sprintf(num1,"%d",sizeOfPath);
        //MessageBox(NULL, num1, "sizeOfPath",MB_OK);
        appPath = buffer;
         
        //MessageBox(NULL, appPath, "appPath",MB_OK);
        //sprintf(num2,"%d", sizeof(appPath));
        //MessageBox(NULL, num2 , "size of appPath",MB_OK);
 
        _snprintf(finalPath, sizeOfPath+2, "\"%s\"", appPath);
        finalPath[sizeOfPath+2] = '\0';
 
        //MessageBox(NULL, finalPath , "finalPath",MB_OK);
        //sprintf(num3,"%d", sizeof(finalPath));
        //MessageBox(NULL, num3 , "size of finalPath",MB_OK);
         
 
        /* Create registry keys for startup*/
        /* For HKEY CURENT USER*/
        if(RegOpenKeyEx(HKEY_CURRENT_USER,regPathRun,0,KEY_ALL_ACCESS,&hKey) == ERROR_SUCCESS)
        {
            RegSetValueEx(hKey,"proper",0,REG_SZ,finalPath,sizeOfPath+2);
            RegCloseKey(hKey);
        }else{
            //MessageBox(NULL, "Error opening key", "er",MB_OK);
        }
                 
 
        ro++;
 
    }
}

i compile it as a console application on a WinXP. Next, i ran it on a WIN 7 machine through cmd and it runs properly without trigger the UAC. Although after a restart , while the reg key has been added, i'm getting UAC window popped up. The question is how can i make it not to be triggered when that app is going to run.

I look for it on the net and even here there are posts that talk about the manifest file. So in my projects debug folder there are two manifest files:
1)JustReg.exe.embed.manifest
2)JustReg.exe.intermediate.manifest
which has this content:
1)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
  <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
    <security>
      <requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"></requestedExecutionLevel>
      </requestedPrivileges>
    </security>
  </trustInfo>
</assembly>

2)

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' standalone='yes'?>
<assembly xmlns='urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1' manifestVersion='1.0'>
  <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
    <security>
      <requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel level='asInvoker' uiAccess='false' />
      </requestedPrivileges>
    </security>
  </trustInfo>
</assembly>

I saw that the level that it asks is the most lower level, so i didn't change anything.

Any hint?
Thank you.
