i have another approach. i start a screen session from the logged in
user session and when i connect to my windows machine via ssh, i connect
to this screen session and start my windows programs there. screen is a
tool that comes with Cygwin.

screen also has another advance: if your ssh connection drops, or you
have to log out, your Cygwin command line tools and Windows programs
remain running.

BTW, after starting a screen session you can disconnect from it and
close the mintty window or DOS box you used for that. So there is no
such window remaining on your desktop.


best regards,

Herbert
