Yes, it is possible to run programs in Command Prompt minimized. You can launch a file directly and then close the window to keep the command line open.

I understand shortcuts can be minimized. In a batch or cmd script, you can use Start /min "C:\windows\notepad.exe". For PowerShell, try Start-Process -Name notepad -WindowStyle Minimized. If it's a folder, run explorer.exe with the full path. Searching for guidance from Google may assist further.
