OK, How would I make where in the start of the game a certain menu of the skin won't popup, but it will pop up when I call a proc.(I forgot the name)

That would be winshow():
winshow(src,"thewindowtohide/show",1)//1 to show and 0 to hide

By default, winshow() shows the window, without need of the third argument.
If you don't want windows to pop up at login, just uncheck the Visible setting in the editor.
Or if you want the boring way of showing a window, you could use winset() on the is-visible parameter. "true" and "false" show and hide the window, respectively.

Oh, I didn't know that. Well, at least he knows how to use the third argument properly now.

Just to let you know, winset() also can hide/show stuffs of the
skin editor, but, winshow() takes less typing in most of cases.

Ex:

winset(src,"window name","is-visible=true")//false to hide-true to show

What makes winset() boring? I've never used winshow(), though, so please enlighten me.

I meant unnecessary, since winshow() is a shortcut for setting is-visible.

I'd say winshow() is actually faster, since it uses a purely internal method of showing and hiding the window instead of having to use winset()'s various parsers and whatnot.
