    How to not display a UI?

    Hi, ALL,
    MSDN at this link states that there is a flag

    CMIC_MASK_FLAG_NO_UI

    The system is prevented from displaying user interface elements (for example, error messages) while carrying out a command.
    However, it also indicates that the structure has

    nShow

    Type: int

    A set of SW_ values to pass to the ShowWindow function if the command displays a window or starts an application.
    which I think contradicts each other as there is no indication I can set the latter parameter to 0 and there is no SW_NOSHOW parameter in the ShowWindow documentation.

    Is it even possible to suppress that window? If yes - how?

    TIA!!

    There is a SW_HIDE value. See ShowWindow function:

    SW_HIDE 0 Hides the window and activates another window.
