Havent used this, but it might work for you.

Its probably using the same tricks as this Windows Utility uses to bypass things like UAC and other security measures, and I have used this.

Maybe Power Shell script has an easy way to Run as Admin ?

You could setup a Shortcut that has Run as Admin selected, then run that.

You could setup a Manifest (named ExeName.exe.Manifest) to requireAdministrator … as long as it does not have one. I think the below is right, but untested.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<assembly xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1" 
           manifestVersion="1.0"
           xmlns:asmv3="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
  <assemblyIdentity
    version="1.0.0.0"
    processorArchitecture="x86"
    type="win32"
  />

  <trustInfo xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v3">
    <security>
      <requestedPrivileges>
        <requestedExecutionLevel level="requireAdministrator" uiAccess="false"/>
      </requestedPrivileges>
    </security>
  </trustInfo>
</assembly>
