C#, How to run a .bat file without a popup console window

I'm trying to run a `.bat` file without a popup console window.


I'm using this code:

Process p = new Process();

p.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
p.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = true;
p.StartInfo.FileName = "file.bat";
p.Start();

string output = p.StandardOutput.ReadToEnd();
p.WaitForExit();


With this code, the program pops up a console window for a second and disappears. How to get it so that it never shows?

just add

p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow=true;

Console window popup will not appear

p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;

The CreateNoWindow option must be set to true

p.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = true;

Another option is

p.StartInfo.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden



To use ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden, the `ProcessStartInfo.UseShellExecute` property must be false, but it looks like you were using that setting so you should be good.
