I want to write a service in C++ .
Service is needed in C++ in order to not use .net.\
The service needs to run a batch file after a specified time interval.
Tell me some good link on how to do such?
I wrote c++ code that can see in the screenshot.

Your code - as it shown in the screenshot (and next time it will be better to copy paste it as part of the question) - has nothing to do with services...
Windows services have definite rules and must be written according them...
In your case you have no service entry point, so your code can not be installed as service...

You have several options to start with:

A Simple C++ Class Framework for Services[^]

You also can use the ATL template wizard in Visual Studio to create a skeleton of a service...
