is this a good idea or not really?
instead of having to open a file through filestream, i would like to just save text in an encrypted format in application settings.
is this OK if the text is under 10mb?
what would be the best way of implementing this?
You can add just about anything to the Resources, including (text) files. They will be embedded in your EXE. You can access file-resources as byte[] and read them using a MemoryStream.
I take it that with ‘Application Settings’ you mean Application-scoped settings, eg readonly. If you want to write from your App, that would require formatting the bytestream with U64 encoding or something, usually making it twice as big.
