What's Wrong?

"On Windows, every bash command creates a visible console window popup that flashes on screen. This is distracting during normal use. Please add the CREATE_NO_WINDOW flag when spawning shell processes on Windows, or provide a setting to enable this behavior.

What Should Happen?

No windows popups. I cannot work as all these pop up windows occur. Please fix this.
