For Windows 10, the two lines in the XML manifest sample marked with an asterisk (*) show how to accurately target your application for the Windows 10 version of the OS. Manifesting the .exe for Windows 10 will not have any impact when run on previous versions of the Windows OS. You can also add this to your .rc file if you already have it defined.
Adding the trustInfo isn’t essential, but it is highly recommended. This will allow your .exe to always get the correct version, no matter whether the OS is Windows 10 or Windows 8.1.
