How to run a batch file in admin mode from a user account?

I've created batch files to run the following commands to work around a particular problem:

sc stop cldflt
sc start cldflt

The batch files work in my user account if you right click and run them as Administrator.

There are methods on the forum to run these batch files from a user account as a Task or using the runas command. I can't get these to work. What's the best way to run such batch files from a local account without been prompted for the admin password?

You must use the /savecred switch, and built-in admin must have a password (default: no password).

When you run the runas command with /savecred switch first time, built-in admin's password will be asked and saved for that account. In the future, the command is run without password prompt.

Saved credentials survive restart, which makes it quite a security risk. A restricted user can any time in the future run any command or script, and run any executable with runas.

Example. Use runas to start elevated Command Prompt:

runas /user:PC-Name\administrator /savecred cmd

When run first time, built-in admin password is prompted and saved. When run thereafter, password will not be prompted.

Thanks. I was using my normal admin account, not the built in one which is why it didn't work.
