Windows Tasks: Run in background

[The Little Guy]

What is the best way to run a php file in the background from a Scheduled Task?

 

I should say that when I use the Task Scheduler, the CMD always pops up to run the task, is there any way to hide it?

It shouldn't. How exactly have you set it up?

I don't know if this helps:

I have no idea what I did, but it works now.
