How to run a batch , .bat, flle as administrator

Just a thought.
Do you have a option for Systems to have full permission.

3. William is an Administrater. But I will change it tomorrow. I also have a everyone user with full privilege.

Human users (i.e. you and me) don't get "full administrator power", even though Windows says we are in the Administrators Group.

The built-in Administrator (i.e. Username: "Administrator") has more power.

On my PC, I'm an administrator and I have received the "You don't have permission to do this. Contact the Administrator" message, when I have been attempting to perform operations.
Though the last time was so long ago that I can't remember what I was trying to do.

Thanks to everyone, But on further investigation of Macrium Reflect, I found that I could put an option in the vmx file that deleted old backups automatically. So this thread becomes not solved but not needed.

Try with this test batch file. It only prints 2 things, if it's running as administrator or not, and the parameters.

Code:

@ECHO OFF
AT > NUL
IF %ERRORLEVEL% EQU 0 (
    ECHO Administrator=YES
) ELSE (
    ECHO Administrator=NO
)
set PARAMS=
SET /A COUNT=0
:CHECKPARAMS
SET /A COUNT+=1
IF [%1]==[] GOTO CONT
IF [%COUNT%]==[1] (
    set PARAMS=%1
) ELSE (
    set PARAMS=%PARAMS% %1
) 
SHIFT
GOTO CHECKPARAMS
:CONT
echo Parameters: %PARAMS%
echo.
pause

When I try to run it from Task Scheduler as admin(Run with highest privileges) and arguments: param1 param2

Administrator=YES
Parameters: param1 param2

Press any key to continue . . .

Also test if the option "Run only when user is logged on" makes a difference.

@bender123, I meant you could add a new scheduled task with this test file to see if that works. It works for me so if it works for you too then it's probably an issue with your other batch file or the properties of its scheduled task. This will verify if it's possible from a scheduled task to start a batch file with parameters as administrator.

It doesn't require interaction. The "pause" is there only so you can verify the output, but you could just close the window. It's just a one-time test, nothing you should keep.
The troubleshooting for your issue has to start somewhere and this was my idea for starting point.
