Are there any events that will fire if someone edited my custom made application config? I wanted to know such changes and apply it on my application.

If this is a web application, then this happens automatically.
If it’s non-web (and you have an app.config), use FileSystemWatcher to monitor the file. When the event files, restart the application (use Application.Restart()) – or just re-load your configuration values in whatever way you initially did. Like, if you have a public read-only property in a “Settings” class, just re-load the settings on that event. Hope that helps.
