Quick break down.

Reads file
Changes file contents based on search string,
saves and closes file
and kills a windows service
exits

Only thing I want to add would be the ability to run the file from a remote site within the company LAN(not a priority though). Currently it needs to be run locally on the server.
I don't see any user interaction mentioned in there. If that's the case, a GUI will only make your program less portable; there's no benefit.

It takes more than a GUI framework to make an application look and feel native. The behavior of the program needs to be as users of the platform would expect as well. Using cross-platform GUI libraries you can make programs that run on the major platforms, but that's not the same as making a program look and feel native.
