How can I run a windows batch file but hiding the command window? I dont want cmd.exe to be visible on screen when the file is being executed. Is this possible?

Create a shortcut to your bat file by using the right-click and selecting Create shortcut. Right-click on the shortcut you created and click on properties. Click on the Run drop-down box and select Minimized.
