in reply to detecting running environment, windows

IPC::Run3 uses system() to invoke the child.

Nope :)

....

try  use Win32 qw(SW_HIDE); Win32::SetChildShowWindow(SW_HIDE);

Sorry if this doesn't help you, I won't be responding further in this thread :)

    don't know what your 'Nope' means
    from run3.pm 
     my $r = ref $cmd
         ? system { $cmd->[0] }
               is_win32
                ? map {
                   # Probably need to offer a win32 escaping
                   # option, every command may be different.
                      ( my $s = $_ ) =~ s/"/"""/g;
                      $s = qq{"$s"};
                      $s;
                      } @$cmd
                  : @$cmd
         : system $cmd;
