Text below from a recent post that I've had no luck with on several forums,
I'm really baffled but thought I'd take one more shot at it...


I have an Outlook add-in that is working great. I've added a .settings file
to the project, and run a couple tests loading, displaying, and saving
settings. My question is, where in the world do these settings get saved to?
When I run Outlook and my addin runs, i can display the values from the
settings class, but can see nowhere how these settings are being saved.
there is no app.config in my application folder, no .dll.config file in the
folder either, but yet the values are being saved somewhere!

Where does the .Settings.Save() method save these values to?


This is one answer I received on a different forum, but it is not correct:

For user settings, they are stored in a user.config file in a folder inside
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application
Data\companyname\application_specific_folder

I have no idea.

Usually applicationName.exe.config or applicationName.dll.config is in the
installation folder. Where it is for your code I'm not sure.

Sue or Dmitry might know.

Usually if none of us answer a post it's because we don't understand it or
haven't a clue
