Solution:

Remove backslash from working directory variable - UAC elevation

For cscript //NoLogo "%WorkingDir%\_elevate.vbs" "%WorkingDir%" "%WorkingDir%\FolderTemplateProvisioner.bat" >nul 2>&1

%WorkingDir%\_elevate.vbs should be %WorkingDir%_elevate.vbs
%WorkingDir%\FolderTemplateProvisioner.bat should be %WorkingDir%FolderTemplateProvisioner.bat

Fixed in v1.2 (in my test, this may not affect functionality as Command Prompt should not be handle things differently even with this issue)
