IsAdmin.exe Returns Yes to standard out and a errorlevel of 0 if user is elevated else returns No and errorlevel of 1

This uses the inbuilt compilers in Windows 10 - there are three VB.NET compilers and three C# compilers - just copy each text file into the same folder and double click the batch file to make the program.
REM IsAdmin.bat
REM This file compiles IsAdmin.vb to IsAdmin.exe
