Answer 1

You have multiple options here.

1. One is to add a registry key. (you should have permission for this)

   RegistryKey registryKeyk = Registry.CurrentUser.OpenSubKey ("SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\Windows\\CurrentVersion\\Run", true);

   registryKeyk.SetValue("AppName", Application.ExecutablePath);

2. You can run the exe from Task Scheduler.
