Windows 10: How to run a batch file in admin mode from a user account?

I've created batch files to run the following commands to work around a particular problem:

sc stop cldflt
sc start cldflt

The batch files work in my user account if you right click and run them as Administrator.

There are methods on the forum to run these batch files from a user account as a Task or using the runas command. I can't get these to work. What's the best way to run such batch files from a local account without been prompted for the admin password?

running DOS as ADMIN

I assume you don't have 'exit' anywhere in your batch file?

Rather than playing with 'pause' - if you want to see the output...

1. Open a command window as admin
2. Run the batch file manually
3. Command window will not close unless the 'exit' command is issued
4. Read output

That's the first step I'd take to diagnose. Then run every line in your batch file manually, one-by-one, in your admin command window (copy and paste from the actual batch file, don't retype the commands).

You'll soon find your problem.

I suggested that in post #4 but @bromberg doesn't seem to have tried it yet...

 

Task Scheduler Batch file

if you launch a batch file as any user it will launch in that users account.

Create a batch that runs "dir" command and outputs it to a text file, that will be in said users account, and if it exists already it just reads the username from teh text file.

I will tell you what you need to know, but I'm not doing it for you.
