The Windows API Code Pack for Microsoft® .NET Framework contains source code for using Win7/Vista features from .Net.

write your own MANIFEST file for that.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" manifestVersion="1.0">
<assemblyIdentity
    version="9.0.0.0"
    processorArchitecture="x86"
    name="ApplicationName.exe"
    type="win32"
/>
<description>YourApplicationName</description>
<trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
    <security>
        <requestedPrivileges>
            <requestedExecutionLevel level="asInvoker" uiAccess="false"/>
        </requestedPrivileges>
    </security>
</trustInfo>
</assembly>

Save it as .exe.manifest OR embed it within the .resx file.
