continue to run application after logging off

[medhanush]

Hi,

Can somebody please tell me how to keep application running even though
user logs out ?
scenario is, user logs in, starts an exe and logs out, exe need to run
for couple of hours.
One solution is to use service instead of exe. Any other ideas ...?
and also user logs-in using Remote Desktop

appreciate your help.

Thanks
MeDhanush

AFAIK, the windows service approach is the only way to run an application
outside the scope of a user session...

If you use Remote Desktop, then you can disconnect instead of log out.
The applications keep running then.
