Sorry, my original email is probably not very clear.
You cannot use:
Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainModule.FileName
You must use:
WixBundleSourceProcessPath - gets the source path of the bundle where originally executed. Will only be set when bundle is executing in the clean room.
See:
http://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/bundle/bundle_built_in_variables.html

Process.Start(myInfo);
Working directory was not there earlier.. I just added after reading your email... testing it... Do you think it will help?

So, if you are trying to re-launch from
C:\Users\ushanar\AppData\Local\Temp\{4A0621B9-5F9B-4F37-AD2E-721DB8018D46}\.cr\Enerprise-Setup.exe
You will fail.
That file is not the full exe. It is a stub. It does not include the source.
It also tells me that you don't have a resolvesource handler, but that is a different story.

I am doing this already... I have this problem only when the setup is made using VSTS managed host which has exact version of wix that I have on on-premise build server.
When I right click and run as admin it works fine. The problem comes only when I double click the exe and click on a button to open the same exe using elevated permissions. I see below error in log file.

The vsts host also uses 3.10.3.3007
It runs fine when I right click and run as administrator... All we do inside is install files and create few windows services.

For 3.10, that 3rd digit is important. 3.10.3 introduced the clean room for a critical security issue in Windows. As for the exe size, has your authoring changed at all? Posting the MSI's bundle authoring will let us tell you if it's embedded or not.
If your bundle is requiring admin rights to run, it sounds like you are doing "bad things" inside your bundle. Bundles shouldn't modify machine state, that's what installers are for.

Wix version onpremise is 3.10.3.3007
WIx Version in cloud is 3.10 not sure about minor version.
Also the exe size produced by onpremise is 265MB and cloud one is 115MB.
I am confused whether the MSI is included or not... But it works fine when I right click and run as administrator... the only problem is double click...click on elevated button permissions...
Does above information give any clue?
Thanks

Why would you have to explicitly elevate? The engine should do this for you if the Plan determines it needs it.
Is the WiX version identical between your old and new Bundle?

Hi friends,
I am facing weird problem with my WiX Burn. I have custom boostrapper. The MSI is included in the Exe. I do have code to request to elevate permissions.
var myInfo = new ProcessStartInfo
{
FileName = Process.GetCurrentProcess().MainModule.FileName,
UseShellExecute = true,
Verb = "runas"
};
Process.Start(myInfo);
Environment.Exit(0);
We were on on-premise TFS, when the build is done, right click and run as admin OR double click the exe, it would prompt for permissions.. the above code is executed and everything from there is normal.
Now we moved to VSTS, and the build process too. We have below issue with the executable..
1. Right click and run as admin works fine.
2. Double click, prompts for permission, click on a button to run the code ... basically to launch as admin... and then it fails...here is the error message form log file.
