Saran,

There is a typo in the Add-Handler statement - you need a space between
cgi-script and .exe:
AddHandler cgi-script  .exe

Make sure you also have a Script-Alias for cgi-bin
Mine looks like this:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/var/www/cgi-bin/"

The comments in the apache file contain im****tant information and are
worth reading.

After changing the httpd.conf file you should always do:
apachectl -t
# to test the configuration file - you will get an error message if
there is a problem

# if no error message, then do
apachectl reload
# that will cause apache to reload the new configuration file, otherwise
your
# changes will not take effect

Note - BOTH of the above steps should always be done after changing
httpd.conf
Otherwise you could make a change that will break your configuration and
not
realize until much later and find yourself wondering why apache did not
start.
You should always make a copy of httpd.conf before making changes.

I am not certain if this works the same way on windows, you may have
to read the fine manual.  If you have apache running as a service then
stopping then restarting the service will get the configuration
changes loaded.

The code you originally posted compiled and ran without modification on
linux.
