如何从Windows命令行运行没有标题栏的exe文件？

Question

I have an external .exe file that I need to run on my PC for a demo. I'm running the .exe file from the command line (from CMD) and when I run the .exe file it opens up in a winforms window with the title bar as a regular window.

I need to be able to run that .exe file with the following restrictions:

1. Completely hide the title bar, so that the window won't have any border at all.
2. Open the window in a split screen mode, so that it will occupy the right side of the screen to allow me to open a second window on the left side.

I thought about trying to wrap it in winform of my own and run it from there, but my guess is that there may be some parameters I can pass to the command line when running the .exe file.

Is there?

The Win32 API SetWindowLong ( https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms633591(v=vs.85).aspx ) is what supports to change window styling.

Command Prompt allows only to change the title of a running application by passing a --title flag.

However you could try using a Powershell script which has access to Win32 APIs. Check this example for a starting point. https://gist.github.com/grenade/ed8dd77ae8eeb5b4a3c1cfd66e9c8ae7
