if you dont want to disable UAC follow these steps :
--> Get winrar from
http://rarlabs.com/rar/wrar371.exe
--> Install It
--> Right click the batch file
--> Select "add to archive"
--> Tick the box "Create SFX"
--> Select "Best" from the drop-down menu (compression method)
--> Go to the "Advanced" Tab
--> Click "SFX options" button
--> Type in the batch file's name in the "Run after extractration"
(including .bat)
--> Go to the "Modes" tab
--> Tick the box "Unpack to a temporray folder"
--> Select "Hide All" from "Silent Mode"
--> Select "Overwrite all files" from "Ovorwrite mode"
--> Click ok
You will see a new file in the batch file's directory
--> Right click the generated file
--> Select "Properties"
--> "Compability" Tab
--> Tick the "Run this program as an administator"
And finally point to it in startup (instead of the batch file)
