Solution 1

Why is your service code concerned about the path of the project it came from?? It shouldn't be because, when it's in production, the project won't be there.

IIRC, it would be Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().Location. Then you just use the methods in the Path class to get the path you want from there.

I have to use one of my Folder which is in my Project from Service.If i use what u have suggested in my service,i will get the path location of my service.But i have to get Location of my Project.

That information doesn't exist in your executable. There is no way it can know of the location of the project folder it came from unless you specifically put the path into the code.
