Open command window here (Admin)

Shift+right-clicking a folder, or its background, will give you extra commands like Open command window here and Copy as path. This Registry file will add an option for Open command window here (Admin), which as implied will open a Command Prompt as Administrator.

Ether run the batch file in an elevated prompt or run the reg file.
