Question

how can i save the settings

Answer 1

You can use the SaveSetting function for that, to retrieve you can use GetSetting function. See this fore more info.

Answer 2

Put all of your settings into a class, then serialize the class to an xml file using the XmlSerializer.

Answer 3

And if you loathe the REGISTRY, you can have a CONFIG file (essentially XML) with KEY / VALUE pairs.

The REGISTRY can be cumbersome on so many levels including remembering to REMOVE any settings you may have saved when you UNINSTALL.
