Beyond the obvious user interface considerations that allow the user to configure the schedule interval, you need to store that preference somewhere. If you want something that is automatic (similar to Windows Update), you will need to write a Windows Service that is responsible for checking to see if an update is available, downloading it, and (optionally) installing it.

This service needs to know about the schedule settings and set some sort of a timer based "wakeup" event to occur x amount of time from today, where x is your schedule interval.

Another option would be to create a separate executable that you then schedule through the Windows Scheduled Tasks interface, but I'm not sure how easy/difficult it is to programatically do that.

As far as downloading the update, you will need to provide either an HTTP or FTP location to host the updated file (or files) and then the client will need to access that location and download the file. You can look at this article for a URL based file downloader:
http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/filedownloader.asp[^]

If the server hosting the update is guaranteed to always be local, you could also do this using file shares and copy the file over the network. Keep in mind that this is the least scalable approach.
