If xyz.exe is the executable name...

What's the purpose of "xyz.config" file?

For what is the "xyz.vshost.exe"?

Do they have to be created? Have to distribute them when distributing an
app?

Is there a special config file always called App.config? How is it different
from "xyz.config"?

It's the configuration file for xyz.exe.

You don't want to distribute the vshost version. If you use a
configuration file, you'll need to distribute that as well.

App.config is copied to xyz.config at build time.
