This is interesting, but I did not quite understand what exactly you
configured. Could you please send us the lines of your preferences file
related to both options (the working one and the not working one)? This
would make debugging easier, and maybe there is an easy solution.

I did some debugging. The problem lies in the use of
QProcess::startDetached. If you call this function with a the "cmd"
prefix, you will inevitably get a command window.
Omitting the "cmd" could be a solution. Does it have any use to add the
latexEnvCmdPrefix to a viewer command ?
Other solutions using QProcess::start did not work as I never seem to
get a finished() signal to be able to delete the process. This deletion
of the Qprocess object was the reason to change this in commit 52258212.
