Copy the scripts to local drive, modify them, open a command prompt with privileged credentials and then copy them to the location in sysvol share.
Files need to be edited, how else do you think it could be done?
What is the change you are making (ie are you adding, editing or deleting same thing on all files and if so then it could be done differently).

I believe what you could do is the following:
Logon to the DC via RDP
Open Command Prompt as Administrator
Navigate to the folder where the scripts are
Run dir /b
Copy the output of the script fillenames
Open excel and paste it column B1
in column A1 type in Echo followed by your net use >>
(Ie echo net use x: \\server1\share1 >>)
Copy A1 to all the rows where there is a value for B1
Copy the data and paste it to your command prompt and you are done
I could also write you a loop that goes through all the scripts but this should do it
