1.20.1 Server error on start up: "Could not open 'user_jvm_args.txt" Strictly when running on Admin

[TekaKatar]

Greetings, I am Teka. Upon starting up a 1.20.1 server, with up to date Java 17, and the recommended Forge Server, the server fails to start automatically when running as admin, note I am the owner and admin of the box I am working on. It works when I do not run as admin, however without the jvm arg set I have. The issue I have is that the batch file requires admin privileges for certain jvm args such as the usage of Large Page memory, so at this time I either run with no jvm args, or all of them. Removing the Large Page args does not assist the issue either, as running the .bat without those args, and not as admin, it still does not register any of the arguments. For reference here is the list of flags I have set in the user_jvm_args.txt file:

 I am rather new to the more advanced side of these things, as I'm looking to branch out the usage of my dedicated server box for things other than Arma III server hosting. So if it's an obvious error on my end feel free to call out my ignorance, I am always looking to learn. One final note, I would give logs, however the server does not generate them as it fails before start, giving only the error in question. I will add the latest log of the server start up when I don't run as admin below, just to show that side of things, if it helps. Thanks again!
