Re: Have a command shell open but hidden

Hello,

You can use the task scheduler (click start, type task scheduler, press
enter, click create task on the right).

If you select the option to run the task whether you are logged in or not,
then the task will not be visible on your screen.

The task will show up in the task scheduler library.

Note: Don't check the 'hidden' checkbox on the options screen... this makes
the task not display in the task scheduler library.
