"can to save inside debug folder" -- Sounds like you are looking for `Environment.CurrentDirectory`, or maybe one of the ones [here](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3991933/get-path-for-my-exe): `System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location`, `AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory`, `Application.StartupPath` — Quantic, May 10 '16 at 17:57
that's mean how to set default path file? where i run this software in different PC then this data file automatically store on that PC — Rifath Apps, May 10 '16 at 18:23
Wait what exactly are you trying to do? It appears that you have a file under `C:\{username}\login.ID` which is storing {username}'s username and password in plain text? You really shouldn't do that. And you want to store this "data file" on a remote computer, a different computer than is running the code? You could use windows shares to do that.. but the premise of what you are trying to do is flawed (creating a "login system" using plain text files). — Quantic, May 10 '16 at 18:32
http://i.stack.imgur.com/YIaLq.png please view this link... currently my username & password are stored in C drive. but i need change this one.. i need to save in debug folder . example login.txt or login.bin — Rifath Apps, May 10 '16 at 18:48
Refresh your page and read the only answer here.. it will give you the full path to wherever your .exe is. `System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetEntryAssembly().Location)` — Quantic, May 10 '16 at 18:52
