Running BAT file

[Mellowed]

I need to run a BAT file as Administrator. I right click on the file
and the option is not there.
Where shall I look?

Can you open DOS prompt (or whatever that's called these days) as
administrator, and then run your batch file from there?

or you could create a shortcut to the batch file, then in the properties of
the shortcut under advanced tick 'run as administrator' OK, OK. Then run the
shoutcut

I wonder why not. My BAT file context menu has...

Same here, I have all the usual stuff on a right click, the BAT which I
use to update information contained in an ancient DOS finance program I
wrote about 15 years ago and which runs under DosBox works fine.

The solution wasn't totally straight forward.
1. Copied the BAT to C: (because it is easier this way)
2. On Accessories menu opened CMD prompt as Run as Administrator.
3. Changed directory to C using DOS. (Sure glad my first computer was DOS)
4. Typed in the bat file name. install.bat

It worked.
