<Application x:Class="app.App"
         ...
         xmlns:properties="clr-namespace:app.Properties" 
         StartupUri="MainWindow.xaml">
    <Application.Resources>
        <properties:Settings x:Key="Settings" />
    </Application.Resources>
</Application>

<Window x:Class="app.MainWindow"
        ...
        xmlns:p="clr-namespace:app.Properties"

    <Grid DataContext="{StaticResource settings}">
        <Menu ... ... />
        <Label ... />
        <TextBox Margin="12,129,12,12" Name="textBlock1"
