    Guessing, I would say that the CREATE_NO_WINDOW constant was added to the Win32 header files for some envisaged use that never got added, or was rejected for some reason.

    The reason it is exported by Win32::Process is because it was discussed and documented in the MS documentation for the call, and because it might do something useful at some point in the future. As it stands, it will just do nothing.
