How to hide console window in python?
I have a simple script with one messagedialog only...
how can I hide the console from it when I execute the app?
Execute the script using pythonw.exe rather than python.exe. You can set that up to happen automatically by giving the script the extension .pyw rather than .py.

Run Python script without Windows console appearing

I created a game using python in PyCharm. I used pyinstaller to create an executable and when it runs a first python window opens then the pygame window opens. The python window is completely blank and where all things would go if I used a print command. I am curious as to whether there is a way to remove this window as it does not do anything. Thank you for your help in advance.
Here is a screenshot of the to windows:
The top-most window is the one that I would like to remove.
By renaming your .py file (for example 'main.py') to .pyw and then converting it to an executable the same way you did it last time, you could avoid opening the console window.
Python scripts (files with the extension .py) will be executed by python.exe by default. This executable opens a terminal, which stays open even if the program uses a GUI. If you do not want this to happen, use the extension .pyw which will cause the script to be executed by pythonw.exe by default (both executables are located in the top-level of your Python installation directory). This suppresses the terminal window on startup.

How to keep a Python script output window open?

In my Python script, I create a .bat file (many actually), and I run them via
os.startfile(blah)
Everything works like expected, however, those terminals die after finishing. I want to keep them open, so that I can type more commands manually in those opened terminals.
How?
You could try using the cmd command to run the batch file, and then use command line arguments for cmd to modify its behavior. For example:
os.startfile("cmd.exe /k blah.bat")
Documentation of the available command line arguments can be found here:

Actually, I am new to python and I want to download some content from a website daily. So what can I use to run that file each day?
Any help would be appreciated!
If you use Unix based system, you may put daily cronjob.
Also there are some alternatives for Windows :

In this way script that you want will be automatic executed.

You could start your application normally and then hide it through pywin32 magic.
Alternatively you could make your program a service, I'm no sure how that's done though.
