If your batch file needs to run as Administrator, put this at the top of your script. It will initiate a UAC prompt and run the rest of the script in elevated mode.
if "%1" == "elevated" goto start
powershell -command "Start-Process %~nx0 elevated -Verb runas"
goto :EOF
:start
rem your code goes here
