  • Running an exe in the background.

    By chance does anybody know how to minimize opened .exe file or run it in background in Windows. I have a updatplu.exe program that I have to run in the forground.

    Thanks,

      Have you tried opening task manager, selecting the program, going to options, and selecting "hide when minimized"?

        but you can use "start /min" command to minimize the window ..(if the application was design to do so)

        Code:
        start /min C:\Windows\notepad.exe
        
        STRPCCMD PCCMD('start /min excel.exe') PAUSE(*NO)
