    Ah yes, Windows…

    Not only for viruses, I saw legitimate software creating those console windows to run.

      Good spyware doesnt show those either, they’re not a sign of malware but of sloppy coding.

        Not always. Having spent significant time of the entire projects to hide console and powershell windows, I think Windows is just crap.

          Yes, there was a good cli-tool for this, until it didn’t work anymore.

            A tool for this…
            Running a program by another program without interrupting user should be a basic feature of an OS!

        My work PC does it on boot. Opens and then closes like 8 command windows.

          Well that probably is malware but installed by your company

            Just look into journal and logs what processes were started by a terminal window…

            Oh… Right.

          Startup scripts most likely. A sign of a bunch of legacy tech in your environment.
