I need to design a small app that will display a predetermined HTML file within it's own HTML viewer, that will delete itself after it is closed.

I know how to code everything except, I am fuzzy on how to delete the app right after it has been closed.
I need to know how to code an app to delete itself after it has been closed.

I need the app to load only once from the Startup folder, (only once), in other words and I need it to be deleted from the Startup folder after the app closes.

I thought that maybe I should make it load up from Startup and launch a seperate exe located elswhere on the H/D, that Will watch for when the first app is closed then the watching app will simply delete the first app from the Startup folder. Is this a good Idea, or do you have a better solution?


I appreciate any time or effort,
