"runas /user:SomeLocalAdminAccount

Here must be like this:

runas /noprofile /user:mymachine\administrator cmd

runas /profile /env /user:mydomain\admin ""mmc %windir%\system32\dsa.msc

runas /env /user:user@domain.microsoft.com ""notepad \""my file.txt\"""""

"Maybe UACPass (free) will solve it:

Done. This program should now run as admin without UAC prompt.
The program even has an option for add to startup :-D .

Your program will only run after logon (or so I think)."
