C# - Navigate webpage invisible

Question

I am trying to navigate the webpage invisibly. I have tried this

Navigate2(Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("appdata") + "\\track.html");

It navigates, but it shows the internet explorer window. How can I make it invisible ?

(edit: I dont want to get page content, it should navigate there)

Navigate but neither display nor keep the page content? Just ignore the returned value (based on the duplicate I posted):

WebClient client = new WebClient();
client.DownloadString("http://www.gooogle.com");
// or
client.GetWebRequest("http://www.google.com");

Will it run the js file in the page ? – user198989 Aug 27 '15 at 19:24
It appears that it will not. See this [question and its answer](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5372277/webclient-runs-javascript). – MPelletier Aug 27 '15 at 20:05
Hmm. So is there any other way to hide the ie window ? – user198989 Aug 27 '15 at 20:19
Try the [`-embedding`](https://msdn.microsoft.com/library/hh826025.aspx) flag. I'm not sure if it runs js though. – MPelletier Aug 27 '15 at 20:43
