[windows] How to run batch file from network share without "UNC path are not supported" message?

My situation is just a little different. I'm running a batch file on startup to distribute the latest version of internal business applications.

In this situation I'm using the Windows Registry Run Key with the following string

cmd /c copy \\serverName\SharedFolder\startup7.bat %USERPROFILE% & %USERPROFILE%\startup7.bat

This runs two commands on startup in the correct sequence. First copying the batch file locally to a directory the user has permission to. Then executing the same batch file. I can create a local directory c:\InternalApps and copy all of the files from the network.

This is probably too late to solve the original poster's question but it may help someone else.
