Hi. Is it possible to make a program run in Windows' background?
Because I want to play a sound but the window should not open.
Like virus protection programs, and so.

Thanks,
TP

Yep, there is. Just use the command 'hide window'. The application will still be active, but it won't be visible.

Cheers

Or have the program to be hidden by setting it in the IDE.
