How to hide the windows of bat files and ps1 files when running.

Answer 1

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

I'd try using the START utility.

It will start a program, command or batch script that opens in a new/separate Command Prompt window. This allows the batch's cmd window to exit in the background.

START powershell -file "D:\scripts\Powershell\xxx.ps1"

And take care of common problems with double quote:
