Not mine either... So this might not work.

Basically change the application to open ruby files to be rubyw.exe
and not ruby.exe. (Right click, Properties, Open with...). This should
cause all your ruby scripts to be opened with rubyw though, which may
not be intended.
OTOH if you need  a console, you can always explicitly open one and
start ruby from there, or create different file extensions for rubyw
and ruby files.  You might even be able to set default applications
per folder or somesuch nonsense.
