How to hide a console application in C#

Question

I have a console application in C#, and I want that the user won\'t be able to see it.

How can I do that?

Answer 1

The best way is to start the process without window.

        Process p = new Process();
        p.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd.exe";
        p.StartInfo.Arguments = "echo Hello!";
        //either..
        p.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
        //or..
        p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;
        p.Start();

See other probable solutions -

Toggle Process.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden at runtime

and,

Bring another processes Window to foreground when it has ShowInTaskbar = false
