How to make a batch file as effective as the shortcut to it.

[Sebastian42]

I have a batch file with the code

sfc /scannow

When I click on the shortcut to it, a CMD window opens and the process (visibly) runs.

But when I double click the actual batch file, there is a brief flash of something happening
which I presume is the process starting and being aborted.

How can I make the actual batch file have the same effect as the shortcut to it ?

The solution is to run the batch file 'as administrator'.
