There were many ways to hide the console on Windows...
But none of them works with the latest version!
Any suggestions?
Comment out these lines in your bin\idea.lax file:
lax.stderr.redirect=console
lax.stdin.redirect=console
lax.stdout.redirect=console

Here's another way:
modify the following lines in idea.bat file from
SET JAVA_EXE=%IDEA_HOME%\jre\bin\java.exe
...
"%JAVA_EXE%" %JVM_ARGS% -cp "%CLASS_PATH%" %MAIN_CLASS_NAME% %*
to
SET JAVA_EXE=%IDEA_HOME%\jre\bin\javaw.exe
...
START "IDEA" "%JAVA_EXE%" %JVM_ARGS% -cp "%CLASS_PATH%" %MAIN_CLASS_NAME% %*
