| This directory contains the code for a COM server that handles elevation |
| requests. This code is compiled into an executable named elevation_service.exe. |
| |
| This is a standalone executable. |
| |
| Currently, the elevation service is only installed for Google Chrome builds. The |
| primary use case at the moment for the service has to do with the Chrome |
| recovery component. The recovery component is registered only for Google Chrome |
| builds. It repairs the Chrome updater (Google Update) when the algorithm detects |
| that Chrome is not being updated. Since Chrome could be installed per-system or |
| per-user, an elevation service is needed to repair the code in the per-system |
| install case. |
