  Use the /min parameter with start command in command prompt
  
  For example,
  

  start /min notepad.exe

  will start notepad minimized.

  You can start a new instance of the Command Line Interpreter... So, if you want to pass the commands, try this... Start » Run. 😁
  

  cmd [/A | /U] [/Q] [/D] [/E:ON | /E:OFF] [/F:ON | /F:OFF] [/V:ON | /V:OFF] [[/S] [/C | /K] string]

  For Eg., to turn the echo off, instead of putting @echo off, you can specify it in the command line this way...
  cmd /Q in the Run dialog box and press Enter key! 😀

  If you are asking in C / C++, then you can use this function.
  

  system("cmd /q")
