Another .config file

I've created another .config file (site.config) to avoid restarting when
web.config is changed, but changes in this new .config file only take effect
when the application restarts. I would like to know how to view this changes
or restart it manually.

Thanks

Based on your description you don't reread the file every time you need
a value (good!), so you store it somewhere. Are you storing it in Application?
Try using Cache instead, there you can attach a "filewatche r", that will remove
the cached item if the file changes.
You will want a utility function to access the cached file: if it's in the Cache
use that, else read the file and store it (again).

Hello, Since it is possible to put application settings in a file other than web.config, I was wondering what is the best practice in doing so vs. putting these settings directly in web.config. My point is that when I deploy an application, I want to overwrite web.config all the time, because the contents of this file has a direct impact on the application's overall behavior. For example, the execution timeout for my app is 60 seconds,...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
