Hey everyone, I'm having trouble running a bat file as an administrator on my Windows 11 PC. It used to work just fine, but now when I try to execute it, it doesn't even bring up the command prompt, which I need for Stable Diffusion. I did adjust some settings just before this issue started, but I can't pinpoint what might have caused this problem. Any tips or insights would be really helpful; I'm happy to provide more info if needed! Thanks a lot!

Try launching the bat file from PowerShell instead; sometimes that can resolve permissions issues. Just remember to give it the 'bat signal' first!
If nothing else works, you might want to consider using the 'Reset this PC' option in settings. It could fix any underlying issues you might have inadvertently caused.
It sounds like you might not have admin rights anymore. Check your event log for any messages related to admin tasks, or try doing something else that requires admin permission to see if the UAC prompts you. If you can get into the console as an admin, copying and pasting your bat file should help diagnose what's wrong.
Have you tried opening the Command Prompt directly and running the batch file from there instead of double-clicking it? That could help you see any errors that pop up.
Haha, I love that reference! Definitely worth a shot too!
