visual c++ /MANIFESTUAC linker option doesn't work

Why this linker flag doesn't work I tried it many times with different syntaxes and no one worked

cl /MT /GS- exam.cpp /link /MANIFESTUAC:level=\'requireAdministrator\'

and this :

cl /MT /GS- exam.cpp /link /MANIFESTUAC:level=requireAdministrator

and also this : 

cl /MT /GS- exam.cpp /link /MANIFESTUAC:"level=requireAdministrator uiAccess=false"

the compiled exe doesn't pop up the uac window when I execute it

I got it from the linker command line in visual studio I had to add this flag

/MANIFEST

then the /MANIFESTUAC will be written like this :

/MANIFESTUAC:"level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'"
