The file that actually runs the msu file is wusa.exe, the windows update exe.  So you can't use run as administrator for the msu file.

 

You can open a command prompt as administrator and then run WUSA  <path>name of file.msu  and it will install it.

MSU packages use WUSA (Windows Update Standalone Installer) which needs highest privilege to install packages. Just run MSU file normally and Windows will elevate it (no need to Run as Administrator)
