The first thing you should do when researching any topic is to google for your question, like this. If the answer is there at all it will be in one of the first few links, all you have to do is read them.

!but i think it's clear that before asking question here i 've googled it.

No it wasn't clear -- you never mentioned it. Had you actually followed and read the 3d link you would have found this:

The process in the description column of the Windows task manager is taken from the product name in the version resource that is statically compiled into the executable. An executable has no way to set this description as runtime.
You only option is to create a native wrapper executable that creates a version resource with a configurable name.

yes you are true ,but it's the first solution that each student google the question.
and how can i create a native wrapper executable?

Though not to the exclusion of effort on the part of the person with the problem. We'll help you solve your problem, not solve it for you so that you can sit back and enjoy the results without doing anything on your own. This is stated clearly in Daniweb's rules.
