I think it's up to the app whether to obey the requested startup state. You could try having a WinWait immediately after the Run, followed by a WinHide or WinMinimize (parameterless to use the window last found by WinWait).

Thanks, I thought it might be something to do with firefox itself.

I've updated the documentation to reflect this, so thanks for mentioning it:

"Some applications (e.g. Calc.exe) do not obey the requested startup state and thus this option will have no effect."
