Windows 10: Start Batch File Minimized via Task Scheduler

Thanks for your replies. Sad to say, I have never learned VBS, and can't make that investment now, so the VBS suggestions elude me. The Nircmd and shortcut suggestions are familiar, but as far as I can tell they run the batch file invisibly, so that I can't bring it back to fullscreen by coolswitching or clicking on a taskbar icon. I looked at WinAutomation, but it seems the price is $400.

FreeBooter: interesting script. I'm not sure I get it, though. The script issues commands that, collectively, construct a batch file and then run it minimized. So I would rewrite my batch files to consist of similar commands. What's running, ultimately, is not the commands presently found in my batch file. What's running is the temporary batch file constructed from the lines in my rewritten batch files. It's credible, but damn ungainly.

Could I do something similar with TYPE or COPY commands that would stick the contents of a normal-looking batch file into a new, temporary batch file that CMD /C would then run minimized? It seems like this shouldn't be hard, but I'm tired and I can't quite wrap my head around it.

Thanks again, one & all ...

Batch script i posted will Echo all your code line by line to Temp.bat and execute it i know you will have to use Echo command front of all the single codes to copied into Temp.bat file that's best i can think of it for now maybe you can use For command to Echo your codes to Temp.bat file. Make sure to not to Echo cmd.exe /c start /min %tmp%\Test.bat to Temp.bat file. If i come up with something else i let you know.
