How to run program in background

Question

I use Windows 8.1, I start program instance by command line. There is this line

java -jar "C:\Program Files (x86)\Jenkins\jenkins.war" --ajp13Port=-1 --httpPort=8082

Program starts and everything is all right. But i want to hide console from task menu. Is it possible to run program by command line in this way?

Answer 1

You could use

1) javaw - java without console window to start your application

or

2) start /b *command* - to start a background task

Answer 2

Why not using javaw instead of java?
