The option is no longer on the context menu like it was on win 10, so how can I run the script as admin?

The Windows 10 method works in Windows 11 as well.
The RunAsAdmin context menu entry appears for ps1 files in all locations not just the Desktop.
Add 'Run as administrator' to PS1 File Context Menu - TenForumsTutorials
Its .reg files were updated in May 2021.

I had not noticed that the RunAsAdmin for ps1 files had disappeared on mine. I've just redone it using the 2021 .reg files and I've now got a RunAsAdmin context menu entry back for my ps1 files in Windows 11 & Windows 10 [Version 21H2 in both].
