Did you check this post: CMD Script: How to close the CMD

It has a few options depending on how you are calling the CMD like:

exit /b

or

start c:\python27\python.exe C:\Python27\EconomyNext\DetailEconomyNews.py %* && c:\python27\python.exe C:\Python27\EconomyNext\DetailFinanceNews.py %* && exit

A little late, but another option which worked from https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/run-bat-files-invisibly-without-displaying-command-prompt/

Running .BAT or .CMD files in minimized mode To run a batch file in a minimized window state, follow these steps:

  1. Create a shortcut to the .BAT or .CMD file. To do so, right click on the file, click Send To, Desktop (create shortcut)
  2. Right click on the shortcut and choose Properties
  3. In the Run: drop down, choose Minimized
  4. Click OK
  5. Double-click the shortcut to run the batch file in a minimized window state.
