Good morning,

Is it possible to hide the session setup window for this package or in general?
Since the execution of this script is quite lengthy, a user could close the window.

Personally, I use this list of apps to remove; it seems more complete to me (Win10/Win11):

Code: Select all

Short answer: no.

Long answer: it's not useless to see what's happening in the window, and there are cases where it's useful to be able to close it if there's a problem with the script. So it shouldn't be hidden completely. The cmd window is a bit silly and doesn't allow you to explain its purpose itself, and we would need a Lazarus/Free Pascal wrapper to indicate that it's a session configuration window and that it shouldn't be closed (and to explain the consequences if it is closed anyway).

We have an internal ticket for this, but it's not a priority at the moment.

Regards,

Denis
