Question

It doesn’t look like the Minimized style has an effect:

string logFilePath = @"c:\mylog.log";
ProcessStartInfo startInfo = new ProcessStartInfo(logFilePath) {WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Minimized};
Process.Start(startInfo);

Thanks.

The Community Comments section of the MSDN page for the WindowStyle Property says:

To use Hidden, you’ll need UseShellExecute = true

To use Hidden, you’ll need UseShellExecute = true among other things. These requirements should be noted in the documentation, but aren’t.

Have you tried that? Maybe it applies to Minimized as well.
