          One would expect this to work by just duplicating the line of code you already have. The second parameter (0) would then hide the window.



          However, when looking at the documentation for this parameters, it appears that Not all programs make use of this. Indeed, when I try this on my machine, which has Notepad++ as default editor for .txt files, the window is not hidden. Other options, such as 'Minimize' (7) will work, but only if the application is not yet opened.



          Maybe you could update your question and tell is what it is you want to achieve. There may be other ways to do it.
