Using Clickonce with xml config files

Question

Hi,

I have a windows forms app that I want to use Clickonce with.

I want to have a custom xml files for the app.

But what if I want to change it later, i.e. either replace it or update it.

How would you do that with clickonce??

If you as the developer want to change the xml file then you can just publish a new version of your app, and if configured so, your users will get the update automatically.

If the user wants to change it it is a PITA unless you use something like the settings functionality and provide a GUI for it.
