Perhaps ShellExecuteEx will do what you are wishing for?
I found a good formula for starting a process as an administrator and it is
packaged in
a small module
<https://github.com/salt-bevy/salt-bevy/blob/master/configure_machine/sudo.py>
tries to emulate a "sudo" command. You might look at the code around line
76.

Starting a subprocess in Windows is somewhat of a black art, I fear.
