Prevent user from reading or copying file

$

Imagine I have some content in file which I don't want anyone to read. Also encryption here doesn't help because I need to store the key anyway - and we have some problems with this.

Is it possible on windows to prevent user from reading and copying a file?

Update: Assume I have administrator rights. The file can be stored where it is needed. The user from which we want to protect this file - can have less privileges than Admin.

There is one thing though. There is software which should be able to read this file. PS who will run this software I am not sure yet though, maybe you can answer in both cases - assuming this user, or someone else runs the software
