I'm begging to write WinUI3 application. Administrator privileges are required for certain functions. In the Win-form program, simply configure the following in the app. manifest
<requestedExecutionLevel level="requestAdministrator" uiAccess="false"/>
However, how to configure in WinUI3, including both packaged and unpackaged.

OK, done.
On my 1.4.2 version on Windows 10, it is the same way for unpackaged app (with requireAdministrator , not requestAdministrator...)
For packaged, it seems to work with
<Capabilities>
<rescap:Capability Name="runFullTrust" />
<rescap:Capability Name="allowElevation" />
</Capabilities>
in Package.appxmanifest (I checked with Task Manager or Process Explorer) but debugging does not work.
Thank you again Castorix31, thank you for providing excellent solutions every time. I will verify whether your method has been successful.
I have already verified it. For unpackaged app, requireAdministrator is needed. For packaged app, both allowElevation in Package.appxmanifest and requireAdministrator in app.manifest are needed. Thank Castorix31 again !
