Im trying to schedule a task to run at a certain time but I want it to run minimized. I can't think of how to do this. Is there an option I can add to the sceduled task run line to make it run minimized?

First ensure there is a shortcut on the desktop for the task or program you want to schedule. Right-click the shortcut and choose 'Properties'. In the 'RUN' field, choose 'Minimised' and OK it. Now in the Task Scheduler wizard, use 'Browse' to select the same icon from the desktop. Complete the wizard. That program should now run minimised at the scheduled time.
