I've noticed that when using the Settings object that's created by a Windows Forms application, any spaces in the "Company Name" field of the assembly info are replaced by underscores in the path of the user.config file. For example, in XP the path to the user.config file will be something like:

\Documents and Settings\user\Local Settings\Application Data\Company_Name_Here\App\Version\user.config

But this only seems to be happening to my own applications. I've got lots of .NET applications installed on my machine, but none of the other directory names under Application Data contain underscores (the spaces are preserved).

What gives? It's not a big deal, but I'm just wondering why this only seems to be happening to my applications, and if there's a way to change this behavior that I'm not aware of.

Thanks!
