MS DOS minimize open windows (1 Viewer)

Does anyone know how to minimize all open windows using a batch file? I've tried googling SendKeys for the keyboard shortcuts...and fiddling with the /MIN switch, but I can't seem to figure it out! Also, I have opened a few different programs in a batch file with this switch, but for some reason, Mozilla Firefox still opens in restored mode (not maximized, but rather in between MAX and MIN). This is the code that does it: Thanks all...

Hi Adam,

I don't know much about this topic but here is my best attempt. If the /MIN switch doesn't work:

Try opening a shortcut with the Run: property set to minimize. No clue how to do that.

Try modifying the registry setting for the program by adding /MINIMIZED for that program. Here is an example: http://blog.jimmyr.com/Windows_Start_programs_minimized_15_2008.php
