App will de-elevate on start to mitigate this problem for the installer and software update. I'd like to add support for this in the installer itself. Possible solutions: add a manifest to the 7-Zip SEA to runasinvoker. This would then launch a small launcher app that would ran the installer. The installer would have a manifest with requireAdministrator. After the install is complete the launcher app would check for the existence of a file to determine whether it should launch the application. Use the safer NSIS plugin http://nsis.sourceforge.net/SAFER_plug-in - it may not solve all scenarios though.
