c# setting for Location returns -32000

Question

In Settings.settings (app.config), I have a value for Location point (100,10). If user moves to new location, that value is saved. However, when c# code reads app.config (contains correct values), Location is assigned values: X = -32000, Y = -32000. How can this be fixed?

Location = Properties.Settings.Default.FGLocation;

Answer 1

If the Scope property of this value is “User” (in Settings window), then check another .config file that is stored in a folder like “C:\Users\<myname>\AppData\Local\<myprogram>…”.
