Where can I find the application.exe.config file in my C# project?

Question

Where can I find the application.exe.config file in my C# project?

I'm attempting to enable the JIT debugger but cannot find the config file.

thanks!

Answer 1

It should be in \bin\Debug or \bin\Release, right next to your compiled assembly.

Answer 2

It's usually in the root of your project. If its not there you might not have one. You can add it by right clicking on your project and add new item.

It's called App.Config at this point. Once you compile it is then renamed to AppName.exe.Config, and placed with your build output.

Answer 3

I had to learn that each project in the solution can have a settings file. But the one in the startup project is the one that becomes application.exe.config in your output folder.
