visual studio 2017 - Project Type for simple headless windows application -


i creating windows app run on windows 2012r2 , migrated newer servers.

this app started task scheduler , run several times day.

it start up, monitor file system and, based on finds on file system, update database.

i want run when user not logged in.

i don't want pop console window while running because inherited applications doing , quite annoying.

i writing in c#.

in visual studio 2017 project type should choose?

  1. blank app
  2. wpf app
  3. console app (.net core)
  4. console app (.net framework)
  5. other?

i new windows development please use terminology see in visual studio 2017 can understand answer.

[edit] changed console app (.net standard) (.net framework) because standard not exist. suffering temporary insanity when listed option.

since there no user interface, , monitoring file system , updating database , running on window server recommend: 4. console app (.net framework), , in application/properties app set output type windows application , prevent type of console window showing. type of application use on frequent basis accomplish tasks similar describing. security settings have user account logging server determine if can run whether user logged in or not.
