I want to disable maya output window permanently. Any option on how to remove it from appearing when I start maya would be great! Not minimize it or hide it, I want to remove it forever. I dont actually care if it pops up when I do render because I never render. In all these years using maya I never had any use of it in rigging/scripting. And no one has ever asked me to show them some information from it... I know this question has been asked a million times but the answers are (at least the ones I found): "just minimize it and forget about it" / "it is important leave it open" / "why does it bother you" and so on... -not the solutions.

Thank you in advance :)

Try setting the environment variable

MAYA_NO_CONSOLE_WINDOW=1

in Windows control panel

This is undocumented/unsupported. Might cause a crash.

I think Luc-Eric knows some people who know some people ;)
One day I would love to see a complete list of those undocumented/unsupported environment variables.
