How to ask for Admin with batch - batch-file

Question

I want to make a batch file which enables the Seconds in the Taskbar (There where you see the time).
I know you can do that manually when you open registry editor and go to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
And create there a DWORD-Value (32-Bit) and name it ShowSecondsInSystemClock and set the value on 1 and then Restart the Computer.
But now I want to make this in a batch file and that the User gets asked to enter his Password (The Password of the Computer) to continue (to make sure it is really the owner of the Computer). Is there a way to do that?
I'm really new to batch and I have only done basic stuff until now, I'm collecting my first experiences with programming.

Refer to the comment above posted by #Compo:
You don't need admin rights to change this setting in registry
And you don't need to restart the computer, just restart the exploer process
#echo off
Title Show Or Hide Seconds In System Clock
Color 9E & Mode 80,10 & SetLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
Set "Key=HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced"

:GetInfo
#REM Get Opened Folders with PowerShell code in a batch file
Set PSCommand="#((New-Object -com shell.application).Windows()).Document.Folder | ForEach { $_.Self.Path }"
REM Populate the array with existent and opened folders
SetLocal EnableDelayedExpansion
Set /a Count=0
for /f "delims=" %%a in ('Powershell -C %PSCommand%') do (
Set /a Count+=1
Set "Folder[!Count!]=%%a"
)

:menu_[1] Show Seconds In SystemClock
reg Add "%Key%" /V ShowSecondsInSystemClock /T REG_DWORD /D 1 /F 1>NUL
Call:Restart_Explorer
#rem Restore all closed folders
#for /L %%i in (1,1,%Count%) do Start /MAX Explorer "!Folder[%%i]!"
Exit /B

:menu_[2] Hide Seconds In SystemClock
reg Add "%Key%" /V ShowSecondsInSystemClock /T REG_DWORD /D 0 /F 1>NUL
Call:Restart_Explorer
#rem Restore all closed folders
#for /L %%i in (1,1,%Count%) do Start /MAX Explorer "!Folder[%%i]!"
Exit /B
::---------------------------------
:Restart_Explorer
powershell -C "gps explorer | spps"
Exit /B

Remark about alias used in PowerShell command to restart the explorer process:
gps is the Alias for Get-Process
spps is the alias for Stop-Process
