Run a backgroundworker process every '5' minutes in Winforms

Question

I have a Winforms app in which I want to run a background worker process every 5 minutes. I am using .Net 4.0.

Would this be possible with 'BackgoundWorker' component?

Answer 1

u can use C# Timer--->

DispatcherTimer dispatcherTimer = new DispatcherTimer();
dispatcherTimer.Tick += new EventHandler(dispatcherTimer_Tick);
TimeSpan interval = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5);
dispatcherTimer.Interval = interval;
dispatcherTimer.Start();
