I still think that the function can already be emulated, even without the detour of a batch file.

with the option "1 file per folder"  
This should generate an exported lrc-file together with the audio file.  
Now rename the \_DIRECTORY again so that the track number level is no more part of the path - this joins all the files together in the original folder again, including the lrc-files.  
Which is more or less what you were looking for, I think.
