Launching a batch file from a hotkey on my drawing tablet?

I am a PNGtuber that multistreams so when I stream i have to launch several programs.

I have a drawing tablet that has hotkeys on the side that CAN be used to launch programs as i have one button set to launch my art software for when I draw.

I wanted to use another button to launch all my programs for streaming in a similar way, but my tablet software can't do multiple files hence why i stumbled into wanting a batch file.

I made the batch file successfully, it works launching it inside the folder with the shortcuts, but when i try to launch the same batch file from the hotkey, it can't locate the shortcuts. I was wondering if theres a way to fix this so i can launch the bat from the hotkey?

The code of the batch file for reference:

rem comments should begin with rem

rem note: this file launches all of my favorite apps!

rem note: replace the names below with your own..

@ echo off

start OBS

start PNGTUBE

start STREAMBOT

@ echo on

I copied the code pretty directly from a website tutorial on making a batch file, hence why it has the notes.

Any help or advice would be really appreciated!
