Have you tried adding runas /user:domain\user "YourConsoleFilePathAndFileName" to the batch file? – David B Mar 10 '15 at 11:19

1Please prevent this from being an XY problem, where X is _"I want to do something"_ and Y is your perceived solution to problem X: _"So I need to run this batch file as a Windows Service"_. You don't want this. You can use SrvAny to create a Windows Service from any application, but you really don't want to. Explain us your original problem X. Probably you're looking for a Scheduled Task, for example. – CodeCaster Mar 10 '15 at 11:27

I think this is what you're looking for:
Running a C# console application as a Windows service
It's not straightforward due to the fact that console app doesn't automatically qualify as a service, you will have to do some coding.
By the sound of your post though it seems as if you initially wanted to build a service in the first place, in that case, start from scratch and make a Windows service.
