I don't think there is any problem in doing so as long as it's requirement of your project. By the way, which type of "Exe" it is? GUI application or console based exe?

Basically there can be multiple processes based on same executable, so as long as you don't disturb your own clones, it is ok. With UI apps, the launching multipl ones is prevented in CAkn base classes.

it's background exe, it means that both can run parally,
and i need to do exit(0) if i want the newer one alive.

if the applicationj logic allows multiple intances, then it should not be a problem.
