the programme '[6992] consoleapplication1.exe' has exited code 0 (0x0).

note built without no error (the file stdafx.h contains headers need).

i searched error, not find out solution, , simple program, can't understand what's problem here :(.

please help me.

from createprocessw documentation, sec parameter:

the unicode version of function, createprocessw, can modify contents of string. therefore, parameter cannot pointer read-only memory (such const variable or literal string). if parameter constant string, function may cause access violation

so in reply question, don't pass constant string literal sec parameter function, or you'll av.
