    i want to ask that how to place an exe in windows 7 startup so that the user (user with USER RIGHTS- LIMITED ACCOUNT ) can't remove that exe from windows startup only the administrator can remove that exe. If i place in "startup" folder than user can easily remove it

      It's ok to have it in the startup folder, you just have to set the access rights on the file accordingly. Rightclick on the file and press properties, then select the security tab and remove all rights except read and execute for the user/user group.

        Depending on the tasks to be performed by your application, a Windows Service could actually be the right way to go.
