ProcessStartInfo.CreateNoWindow and UserName+Password

[Walther Homme]

Hello

"If you call the Start(ProcessStartInfo) method with the
ProcessStartInfo.UserName and ProcessStartInfo.Password properties set,
the unmanaged CreateProcessWithLogonW function is called, which starts
the process in a new window even if the CreateNoWindow property value is
true or the WindowStyle property value is Hidden."

Does anyone have a way around this? Unless I remove the UserName and
Password from the ProcessStartInfo I get a new visible window flashing
every time I start a process and it's really giving me a headache.

Thanks in advance.

I recall the same issue with no workaround. I told Brad Abrams about it on
his blog, and he talked about posting a workaround, but I never saw it. I
think they may need to fix the win32 call.
