Default how to get the title into task manger 'window'?

I run batch files. (well 'duh')
Sometimes I'll have two or more running, but when I look at the
task bar, all I see of the "title" is "Adminis..."

IF I hover over the mouse, up pops the popup with the full title:
e.G., "Administrator: ZZ Home Agent Bat".

Is there a way to eliminate, remove, not display the
"administrator" part, or is that a Feature?
It occurs to me,that if I could rename "administrator" to
something shorter (E.G., Adm, Me, ...) that would serve as a
"solution" of sorts.

I use Nircmd to rename, change size, and change position of CMD windows:

:: Change CMD Window title, size, and position
:: ================================================== ============
SETLOCAL ENABLEEXTENSIONS & (TITLE _Overnight_NAS.bat) & ENDLOCAL
START "" /WAIT "C:\Program Files\nircmd-x64\nircmd.exe" win setsize
stitle "Administrator" -1300 0 1300 1090
