How can I run a program from a batch file without having the console open after the program start? My solution to do this from the GUI: Create a shortcut to the program you want to run; Edit the shortcut's properties; Change the TARGET field to %COMSPEC% /C "START "" "PROGRAMNAME""; Change the RUN field to minimized. Ready! See how you like it.. PS: Program parameters can be inserted in between the two final quotation marks; the PROGRAMNAME string can be either a filename, a relative or an absolute path - - if you put in an absolute path and erase the drive letter and semicolon, then this will work in a thumbdrive no matter what letter the host computer assigns to it.. PROGRAMNAME with the %CD% variable, paths will always match; same trick can be used in START IN field).
