defiantly dont need a separate command window that it opens in.

May be you don't need it but, if you use /min, it is completely unobtrusive and will disappear when the process does.

If you really need to avoid the window, then you'll have to work out how to use Win32::Process and the appropriate combination of these flags:

CREATE_DEFAULT_ERROR_MODE CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP CREATE_NO_WINDOW CREATE_SEPARATE_WOW_VDM CREATE_SUSPENDED CREATE_UNICODE_ENVIRONMENT DEBUG_ONLY_THIS_PROCESS DEBUG_PROCESS DETACHED_PROCESS

Or I could show you...but nah.
