Bing a windows developer for 15 years I know this should be the
working one. Check your linker settings in your Visual Studio project
file and make sure that it does say /subsystem:windows

The default in cmake I believe is /subsystem:console which I know
starts a new console. I remember that I used that option years ago to
add debug console to all my GUI apps. :)
