Hide PowerShell window

0 vote

I want to use PowerShell to start another process (mmc.exe). It works basically, but the PowerShell window pops up for a few seconds which I find annoying.

Is it possible to add an option to start the PowerShell window hidden? Normally you do it with

PowerShell.exe -WindowStyle hidden <command>

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hello Andreas,

It is currently not possible to hide the PowerShell window. I have moved your post to the feature request section and will validate with the engineering team if it is something they want to implement.

Best regards,

Hello Andreas,

I have opened a ticket, I think it would be simple to add. Just a question, are you using the "session" type Powershell (blue image color), or the "macro" type Powershell (green image color)? We should be able to add it to both but I want to make sure we don't miss the actual feature you're using.

Hello Hubert,

Thanks a lot for your help, I use "session" type PowerShell as I need to start it with a different account from a vault.

Hello, did you got any response from development on this? Would be really nice if they could implement it!

Hello,

I believe we should have a new option for the powershell entries to hide the window starting with RDM 2022.3.11.0.

Thanks a lot! Do you have an estimation for me when this version will be released?

I think we should have a beta for 2022.3.11.0 next week if all goes well. We are also aiming for the first non beta release of RDM 2022.3 to be in early november.

Perfect, Thanks a lot! I asked because 3.11 sounded like far in the future and not within 2-3 Weeks. :)
