you could run it, and hide the window with WinSetState("Title",@SW_HIDE)

You can also do it right from your Run or RunWait command - that way you don't need to worry about titles

RunWait ( @ComSpec, $workingdir, @SW_HIDE)

then, of course, you can add a /c switch and put the command you are launching from cmd.exe into it. Like

RunWait ( @ComSpec & " /c dir", "c:", @SW_HIDE)

Would list the contents of the current directory and then close cmd.exe (of course, that would be useless because it would be hidden and you'd never see the output).

Don't take the above code literally - I'm not the best at getting syntax right from memory Hopefully it gets you the gist though.
