best place to save application state?

Hi
I tried to save my application's control data into App.config just to find
out
that it's has a read-only collection. So this is not like good old ini
files.
Are we still supposed to use the registry for this?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Dee,

The registry is one choice for user specific configuration information. Another
is Environment.SpecialFolders.ApplicationData, which is a special folder
that you can drop files into. These files can be in any format you wish (ie:
ini or xml).
