That desktop application, or some other application you may have to write, has to upload that data to your website through some interface that you have to write.

NO, the web application running on the server can NOT retrieve the data directly from the client machine. It will not have, nor should it ever have(!), the permissions to access data directly on a client machine.

No you didn't get it my question. Suppose my desktop application storing some user data daily bases, I want get that data evry night show in my website

You didn't get my answer. The web server HAS NO ACCESS WHATSOEVER TO CLIENT MACHINES FOR ANY DATA, NO MATTER WHERE ON THE CLIENT IT IS STORED.

The client machines MUST upload any data you want shared to the web server/database.

So you are saying it's not possible, it is not possible even though if we create task schedular, that run on every night at client machine, post all data into my database, give any solution, because I don't want client to do that task every night

It sounds like you have a piece of client software that doesn't do what you want it to do.

So, yeah, a scheduled task could do the job, so long as you have a tools that actually uploads the data.
