command line switch question

does anyone know of a switch to immediately minimize task manager after
starting? I like this to run on startup (done thru startup in programs) but
wish to make in minimize. /min, /minimize, -min, and -minimize did not work.

If you're referring to taskmgr.exe then here is how you can do it:

start /min taskmgr

I think thats what I need but I am not sure how to incorporate it.
what I was trying to do was create a new shortcut to
%windir%\system32\taskmgr.exe and that brings it up full screen.
should I do it as a cmd prompt? I am pretty new to this so any help is
greatly appreciated.

- Create a new shortcut
- Type this in the command line field:
cmd /c start /min taskmgr.exe
- Type a descriptive name of your own choice
