open program minimized via command prompt

Question

I have a windows 8.1 machine and I want to open a program with minimized window. For a program like notepad, I just use the following command:

start /min \"\         


        

Answer 1

For the people which are looking for the opposite (aka fullscreen), it's very simple. Because you just have to replace the settings /min by /max.

Now the program will be open at the "maximized" size ! In the case, perhaps you will need an example : start /max explorer.exe.
