user.config not generated in local app data

Question

For a c sharp WPF application. The user.config file I would expect to be generated in : \Users\username\AppData\Local\AssemblyCompany\AssemblyProduct\Assemblyproduct.exe_Url_asdf2345sf\version\user.config.

But for some reason no such file is generated when running the application from visual studio 2012(the application is build under x86 platform and target framework .NET Framework 4). Does anyone know why this might happen?

Answer 1

Actually its under \Users\username\AppData\Local\AssemblyCompany\Assemblyproduct.exe_Url_asdf2345sf\version\user.config, there is no \AssemblyProduct\.

However it only gets generated after your application performs a Settings.Default.Save(); otherwise defaults are picked up from your normal Settings.Default
