Send to Set Always Run As Admin no longer working

Well I see the problem

""E:\Downloads\Disk Utilities\Defraggers\smart-defrag 4-setup.exe""

It is putting double quotes. Which isnt proper and so we get the error. For some reason when the file name is being sent to the bat file there is quotes already with it and so the bat file is adding them already and so now we have double.

The trick would be for me to update the bat file to see if there is already quotes or not :-)

Shane:
Replace the bat file with this one, see if it does better :-)

Getting a blank cmd window. This thing worked fine last month now it doesn't work even on a new install of Windows? I am cursed.  :evil: Even tried turning off DEP. Including a DXDIAG file just in case. Thanks for your time, Shane. It's tedious, I know.

Shane:
The old bat file does still work, I just dragged and dropped an exe right over it, but when I did a shortcut it added the double quotes. So in this new batch file I tested it and got it to not do that. Very odd.

I have the same OS (Win 8.1 Pro) installed on a regular hard drive on this same system. It runs fine on that one even though it's been tweaked, over-loaded with software and isn't up to date:  but doesn't work in in this fresh up to date version installed on my SSD. So I'm including the DXDIAG from the Win 8.1 Pro it DOES work in.  Maybe you can compare it to the other one I uploaded on my last post and spot something fundamentally different, even though they're the same OS.  In your own time, of course. Don't mean to hog your attention.  :shy:
