Windows Service to run a function at specified time

Question

I wanted to start a Windows service to run a function everyday at specific time.

What method i should consider to implement this? Timer or using threads?

Answer 1

if it is one in a day, why you don't use task scheduler? windows service is useful when you want run task many time in minute. so if you want to run a program in a specific time, its better to use task scheduler and set event of task scheduler on a specific time in day. I do many thing with task scheduler and its perfect. you can set rout of program in task scheduler and set interval time to run it. if you want to run a program every 5 min in a day still you can use task scheduler and its better way.
