    Solution #1

    Use the /min slash after START command when starting your bat-file. This will start it with a minimized window. Example: START /min c:\mypath\mybatfile.bat

    Solution #2

    Create a shortcut to CMD.EXE. Open up Properties box of the shortcut.
    In shortcut-tab change "run" to "minimized". In the target address (path and name of CMD) append path and name of your bat-file.

    If you now doubleclick the shortcut, it should run CMD minimized, with no window showing, which in turn should start your bat-file.
