except for the part where this an admin account named 'Admin' that the other script goes and gets the password ($pw) for...this is no better than actually having the plain text password stored in the script.  Operationally you would be better off creating that user a unique local admin account with which to elevate themselves, and logging when that account is used and for which processes, in this solution everyone is 'Admin'.

$pid = RunAs('Admin', @ComputerName, $pw, 0, $reEXE & ' ' & $tmpBAT, @SystemDir, @SW_SHOW, 8)
