When I pin runemacs.exe to the taskbar and run it, it loads emacs
which creates another icon on my taskbar, It seems impossible to
currently have the same pin'd icon load up and run emacs under the
same icon without creating the console window.

Ideally, I should be able to have one pinned icon on the taskbar, and
when clicking it it should load emacs without the console window. This
seems impossible.
