nodemon spawns new windows on Windows 10

[lerarosalene]

• Versions: node@v16.15.1, win32@10.0.19045
• nodemon -v: 2.0.20
• Operating system/terminal environment (powershell, gitshell, etc): Windows 10, cmd
• Using Docker? What image: no
• Command you ran: nodemon --watch webpack.config.js <path-to-webpack-dev-server-bin> via pm2 daemon

More info:

If pm2 is spawned via windows console, and if it starts nodemon binary as it's app (with ecosystem file configured as such)

const wdsPackage = require('webpack-dev-server/package.json');
const wdsBin = require.resolve(`webpack-dev-server/${wdsPackage.bin}`);

const nodemonPkg = require('nodemon/package.json');
const nodemonBin = require.resolve(`nodemon/${nodemonPkg.bin.nodemon ?? nodemonPkg.bin}`);

module.exports = {
  apps : [{
    script: nodemonBin,
    name: 'my-cool-app-name',
    cwd: '.',
    args: `--watch webpack.config.js --watch package.json "${wdsBin}"`
  }],
};

it then spawns window with shell of webpack-dev-server.

Expected behaviour

No windows spawned

Actual behaviour

Steps to reproduce

Install pm2 globally, init project, install nodemon there, make ecosystem.config.js with given config (you can replace webpack-dev-server with any node script which runs indefinetely). Run pm2 start ecosystem.config.js and enjoy new console window.
