I have built a Windows service app that's installed and running. During debugging while the service is running, I have found that when I import the properties.settings.default and modify it, it is not saved to the app.config file in my project folder. I could not find this app.config file in [user]/%appdata%/Local/ either..

Where does properties.settings.default.save() save to? I'm running Windows 7 if that helps.

You will find the APPDATA folder for system accounts at:

C:\windows\system32\config\systemprofile

Or (for x86 apps on Win7 64):

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\config\systemprofile
