If you’re using the Task Scheduler on Windows 10 to run tasks on a specific time or during a trigger event and a command window keeps appearing every time the task runs, it’s possible to configure the task to stop producing a command window.

The only caveat is that while creating a task you can check a “Hidden” option, when the task runs the Task Scheduler will show a command window on the desktop briefly, which is not only annoying, but it’s also a bad user experience. Usually, you use Task Scheduler, as it’s a tool designed to execute task based on a wide range of criteria. On Windows 10, sometimes it’s necessary to automate certain routine tasks (e.g., mount a network drive, launch an app, run a batch file, show a message) and run them at specific scheduled times.
