Answer 1

Here, you have 2 ways to execute your application to run at 6 AM daily.

1) Create a console application and through windows scheduler execute on 6 AM.

2) Create a timer (System.Timers.Timer) in your windows service which executes on every defined interval and in your function, you have to check if the system time = 6 AM then execute your code

ServiceTimer = new System.Timers.Timer();
ServiceTimer.Enabled = true;
ServiceTimer.Interval = 60000 * Interval;
ServiceTimer.Elapsed += new System.Timers.ElapsedEventHandler(your function);

Note: In your function you have to write the code to execute your method on 6 AM only not every time
