Go to solution Solved by Graupunkt,

I know you can run a shortcut minimized (check ink properties). 

 

In a bat/cmd script use 

Start /min "" "C:\windows\notepad.exe"


I am using powershell for years now, where you can use 

Start-Process notepad -WindowStyle Minimized

 

If it's a folder than run the explorer.exe followed by the path. Google should help on that.
