WinAPI:

FreeConsole();

Optlink linker (default for 32bit):

-L/SUBSYSTEM:windows

MSVC linker:

-L/SUBSYSTEM:windows -L/ENTRY:mainCRTStartup


If you're using dub, throw them into lflags and remove the -L.

 SUBSYSTEM:windows.lib

/ (slash) is the part of a linker switch, /SUBSYSTEM:windows
so in dub.json it will look like

...
"lflags": [ "/SUBSYSTEM:windows" ],
...
