Hi,

Question: How can I suppress the creation/visibility of a console that is created by a console app that I execute (custom action #50) while installing?
The console does not require input from the user, it just displays messages on screen, so there should not be a functional reason why not to suppress the creation/visibility of the console.

Thanks

I'm not aware of a specific flag that MSI supports directly; one alternative is to use an InstallScript custom action, since LaunchApplication and similar InstallScript functions support a run-hidden flag.
