I'm a bit confused about where to put my program settings.
Firstly, I can choose (I suppose) between .ini, .xml or the registry. Which
one is best?
Secondly, *where* do I place any files I generate on a per-user or
per-application basis? For example, I cannot place user settings in the
\Program Files\My Application directory, because many users won't have write
access to it. Should I place it into the documents and settings\application
data\bla bla directory? Where should I place application settings (such as
the database connection string).
I'm sure there must be some .NET wide scheme for managing all this.
Thanks for your advice,
Robin
