Unfortunately, this script is a simple .bat file : it relies on CMD to be executed.
There are more user-friendly / complex solutions available, but this one was just the simplest / fastest. 👍
A trick using VBScript to start the .bat "hidden" could be used, but VBScript will be removed from MS Windows in the future :

Having the CMD window displayed is also a way to see the progress for huge directories

I'm pretty new to Github so I'm sorry if this is not where to add suggestions. I think it'd be a good idea to add the option to hide the CMD window that appears when converting the images. It takes your focus out of the file explorer and it takes a second, would be more convenient not to have it appear in the first place.
I've used it a lot and it's of great help though, so thank you! :)
