mt.exe -manifest Test1.exe.manifest -outputresource:Test1.exe
I also tried adding the manifest using Resource Hacker, file size increases in size from 123 KB to 124 KB; however, when I execute
Test1.exe I get the following error: "Could not initialize installation. File size expected=168640121, size returned=126017"
How can I embed the manifest into an .exe created from Wise Script?

Use resource hacker (http://www.angusj.com/resourcehacker/ ) in the following manner:
Now anything compiled with Wise Script Editor now has the MyApp.exe.MANIFEST embedded into the .exe.
Note: Changing stub32.exe is performed at the user's own risk and cannot be supported.
