I started to create a text based adventure game named TeaBAG. It works in Windows 10 (if I change all the 11s in lines 3-4 to 10), but it doesn't seem to work in Windows 11. I know that the administrator part isn't required, but I want it in the code in case I add more to it. I tried changing multiple parts, but it doesn't work. The .bat file doesn't even start, so I can't debug by adding "pause" to the end. Is there any way to fix this, or do I have to remake the entire thing in Python (I plan to do this anyways, but I want a working batch version)?
Part of the code:

echo: Aether is one of these worlds. Fifteen billion years in the past, and the first world formed by the gods, it had
echo: incredibly powerful magic. Many species lived there in peace. To get there from Earth, it would require enough magic
echo: to go through three dimensions, and time travel fifteen billion years into the past. So the species of Earth
echo: had no access to the origin of magic, Aether. But during the creation of the world, multiple worlds connected to Aether was
echo: destroyed. This sent powerful blasts of magic throughout dimensions, time traveling, warping, and finally one of those
echo: blasts landed on Earth. The gods were aware of this, but because of the blasts power, the gods couldn't do anything at
echo: all. They finished creating Earth, and abandoned it. A few billion years later, humans started to
echo: become more and more intelligent. At the same time, the magic that landed on Earth, started to mutate. Because it

Echo: Aether are incredibly rare, and all of them are forceibly shut down by the Aether Council, the leaders of Aether.
Echo: However, this permanent portal was so powerful, the Aether Council couldn't shut it down. So they locked it up.
Echo: Thousands of years later, humanity has just sent mankind to the moon. Meanwhile, the portal was forgotten in a remote
Echo: location, and not much people knew about it. Only the village next to it knew. This village, the guardians of the portal,
Echo: has guarded this place since the beginning. So when sounds of magic and war started coming through the portal,
Echo: they knew something was going on. So, someone was sent to explore. What they found, was chaos. The entire Aether
Echo: had gone to absolute war. An evil primordial deity had taken over the Aether Council. Only one person
Echo: could take down the primordial deity Chaos. The gods couldn't stop Chaos, mostly because primordial deities were the more
Echo: powerful parents of the gods. The other primordial deities also couldn't stop Chaos, because only one other was free, and
Echo: he wasn't powerful enough. So everything rested on one person, a baby, but a baby that would soon become the most powerful
Echo: entity ever. However, before he finished receiving his powers from the Aether Fountain, the source of all power, he dissapeared.
Echo: Nobody knew where he went. It is now the year 2021, and effect from the Aether War has come through the portal in the
Echo: form of a pandemic...
