[Closed] Start 3ds Max in hidden Mode

(						
 	filename = @"c:	est.ms"
 	procInfo = dotNetObject "System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo" ("\"C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2015\3dsmax.exe\"  -mip -silent -U MAXScript \"" + filename + "\"")
 	procInfo.useShellExecute = off
 	procInfo.createNoWindow = on	
 	DotNetHandle = DotNetObject "System.Diagnostics.Process"
 	DotNetHandle.StartInfo.WindowStyle=(DotNetClass "System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle").Hidden
 	DotNetHandle.Start procInfo
 )   

I need to hide the icon from the taskBar and max should be minimized.
The code from above does not hide it.
I need a max to work in BG like Vray Spawner does.

Maybe you can try to “hide” the 3dsmax icon to the tray?

Yes, I would like to place it to tray by maxscript. I don’t want to place all max icons to tray, just one instance (that was opened like above).
