Re: Hiding console when running Cygwin utility from Task Scheduler.


Greetings, Oleksandr Gavenko!

> I prepared backup task in Bash script and added task to run it in Windows Task
> Scheduler:

>   Executable: c:\opt\cygwin\bin\bash.exe
>   Params: c:\home\backup\backup-job.bash

> Each time job run I see console screen. 'procmon' shown that it is::

>   \??\C:\Windows\system32\conhost.exe 0xffffffff -ForceV1

> Seems each Cygwin utility brings console into foreground. I also tested with:

>   c:\opt\cygwin\bin\yes.exe

> How can I prevent console to be shown when bash started from Task Scheduler?

Do not start tasks as current user. Or use wrapper that prevent console
window creation in first place.
