re: lnk won't run minimized when executed from cmd Wednesday, April 4, 2007 at 5:24 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by paul lawrence (1 messages posted) If you want to run any kind of a batch file minimized, even ones with the 'start' command and prevent the quick flash at the beginning use a .bat to .exe converter and click the "ghost" option. In fact you can combine several batch files and .vbs scripts or other executables all together in one compiled exe using the include option. The one I use is found at http://www.f2ko.de/English/english.html There is a handy .vbs to .exe converter there too!
