Ghostscript Version: Ghostscript 10.05.0 for Windows (64 bit)
Windows Version: Windows 11 23H2 22631.5039

When running commands with gswin32 and gswin64 on Windows, they open their own window, which disappears after execution. It is recommended to use gswin32c and gswin64c instead to resolve this issue.

Official Description:

The name of the Ghostscript command line executable on MS Windows is gswin32c/gswin64c so use this instead of the plain ‘gs’ in the quickstart examples.

There is also an older version for MS Windows called just gswin32 that provides its own window for the interactive PostScript prompt. The executable gswin32c/gswin64c is usually the better option since it uses the native command prompt window.
