I’d go with @lc.’s answer but if you need something with more custom logic, try this:

var keyValue = new Dictionary<string, string>();
foreach (var lineItem in System.IO.File.ReadAllLines(@"C:\Users\Kane\Desktop\yourFile.txt").Where(x => x.Contains(": ")))
{
    var splitPosition = lineItem.IndexOf(": ", System.StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
    var key = lineItem.Substring(0, splitPosition);
    var value = lineItem.Substring(splitPosition + 1);

    // add in functions for checking null
    // add in functions for trimming
    // add in special cases for 
    keyValue.Add(key, value);
}
