Configuration Application Block and private user settings

Greetings.

I use Configuration Application Block of Enterprise Library to store some
user application settings like window size, position, etc..
Is there a way to set the FileName property of default XML File Storage
Provider to use ApplicationData folder of current user? This way each user
can have his own configuration file for given configuration class.

Best Regards,
Mariusz Wojsyk

Take a look at that post, it currently is not available in the configuration
block.

Hi all, I was trying to find an easy way to write in the standard configuration (like app.config) xml-based files. I found classes that can be used to read this information (in System.Configuration) like the ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings property, but I was not able to find anything to write app settings in these files. Isn't this kind of "asymmetrical"? Anyone familiar with the reasons of such a lack? Thanks a lot,

Normally the registry is used for this but I'd rather not use the registry if possible. Isn't there some kind of...

Hi All, I'm writing a Windows Service app using C#. I need to read some configuration settings before the service starts up. These settings will be used by the service in its operation.

Hi! I try to use the configuration application block from the Enterprise Library and have done prework as specified from one of the hands-on labs from that package.

Hi, I used the microsoft configuration block to store settings for applications in the past and this worked fine. But now I have the following situation and I do not know how to solve this: I want to write a windows service that stores its settings in a xml file using the configuration block.

I know that we can add a single name value entry in app.config or web.config in the configuration/configSettings/appSettings section like so: <add key="key" value="value" /> Question: I want to add a dictionary of name-value pairs. In other words, instead of a single name-value, I want to add a name-value collection in there. I could do this:

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.
