When running a command at startup, it's best to use the full path of
the application and the full path of any files passed on the command
line. For example, run something like the following:

"path\to\pythonw.exe" "path\to\AIG.py"

This removes any dependency on the search PATH or the current working
directory. Also, the script shouldn't depend on the initial working
directory. Any files that it needs should be in a well-known location,
such as the script directory,
os.path.dirname(os.path.abspath(__file__)).

Also, there's no need to use a batch script just to run a single
command. When you use a batch script, a visible console gets created
for CMD. It doesn't close until CMD exits, which in this case won't be
until pythonw.exe exits, unless you use `START` to run the command
without waiting. It's simpler to just run the command directly using a
shortcut (i.e. LNK file) or the task scheduler.
