How to put windows form into stealth mode?

[Pranciskus]

Does anyone know how to put such application http://imgur.com/DnADL1L into the hidden mode as console application using

HWND stealth;
   AllocConsole();
   stealth=FindWindowA("ConsoleWindowClass",NULL);
   ShowWindow(stealth,0);

To hide the Window you can call Hide().

To minimize the Window to the taskbar set WindowState = FormWindowState::Minimized;

Thanks for reply, I'm noob at this and it doesn't work http://imgur.com/SVHrEYu . Where I have to put Hide() to make it work?

Well it depends what you want to do. You can call it on the FormLoad event or on a button click event or in the constructor. However I would recommen that you learn the basics first.

Haha, I was watching exactly this video in your first link while making such application. Anyway, thanx for the links. I'm pretty straightfoward at this and I'm not planning to learn everything, I just need to make the application which boots silently (it means noticable only in task manager) and launches a few programs at once precisely in windows form (to avoid another conhost
.exe proccess in task manager at the time) if it's possible.
