I ran IDL from the command line in windows. In my case:
- open command prompt (windows key + r --> cmd)
- got to the idl directory, in my case
cd "\Program Files\Exelis\IDL84\bin\bin.x86_64"
- rund idl by typing idl

Maybe what you meant is that it is more difficult or not usual to run programs from the command line in windows. Maybe, but I've used (a long time ago) intensive scripting (.bat files in windows) to run idl code.

And I can confirm that from the command line on windows I do not get any errors when running windows, /free.

Cheers,
Helder
