I'm executing Switch from a PowerShell script using the following code.  It appears that the -hide command is being ignored.  Why? I there a way to make this work?

    Start-Process $exe -ArgumentList @("-convert `"$SourceFile`"",

                                        "-format `"$Format`"",

                                        "-outfolder `"$TargetFolder`"",

                                        "-overwrite `"ALWAYS`"",

                                        "-settings `"$Settings`"",

                                        "-hide")

My computer has 6 Cores and 12 CPUs.  I have the following problem.

I'm using the Switch Command-line Tool and in my situation the PowerShell script does not pause.

It continues to the next line of code and that becomes a problem because an instance of Switch is already running.

Ideally, I want the script to remain on the line of code until the conversion process has completed.

Is there a way to address this issue?

Thanks!  Looks like I did the hard way.  I forgot about Start-Process.

   & $exe -hide -outfolder $TargetFolder -convert $SourceFile -format $Format -settings $Settings -overwrite ALWAYS

   do {
        $Switch = Get-Process | Where-Object {$_.ProcessName -eq "switch"}
        
        $counter = 0

        foreach ($item in $Switch) {
            if ($_.CPU -gt 0) {
                $counter += 1
            }         
        }
    } until ($counter -eq 0)

I'm launching Switch within a Microsoft PowerShell script.  When the script launches Switch with the parameters passed to it, it runs fine. 

However;  the script continues to the next line of code. 

How do I make the script wait until Switch has completed its process before continuing to the next line of code in the PowerShell script?
