If you never want the console to be displayed at all, why use a console program? Create a Win32 program, and simply don't create any windows or end the program. Eg:
#include <windows.h>
int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE,HINSTANCE,LPSTR,int)
{
do
{} while(1);
return 0;
}
When the program is run, nothing will show up on the screen, and you will only be able to end it through the task manager. If you actually do want a console to which you can output text, it's possible to spawn a console through a Win32 program. Have a look at AllocConsole
