Right click on the shortcut on the desktop and goto Properties.

Click the Shortcut tab at the top (should already be selected).

At the top left it should read:
Target: C:\<where ever you installed the game\cm4.exe

At the end of this line add:
-windowed

Apply the change and then click OK.

This will then open CM4 in window mode :D

On a side note if anybody reads this and wonders why they can't open up CM4 in Fullscreen mode and gets the error: 0x000D unable to open fullscreen mode
You can't seem to run Fullscreen in any resolution above 1024 x 768 :(

You need to put the -windowed outside of the " " marks:
"C:\Games\CM4\cm4.exe" -windowed
