i use the ConfigurationManager to store some app-configurationvalues.
Since i start my app from the program folder i cant save config-changes…

How can i handle this problem?

    3 options:

    • run your process with administrator privileges (not good if you don’t need them)
    • put your exe somewhere not in Program Files
    • store your config in AppData (best)
