I had been editing my app.config a little too much to the point where it broke. Now I've been trying to find a way to regenerate it with the data it had (like it said it required Newtonsoft.Json dll).

I've tried to clean & rebuild my solution but that doesn't seem to work.

Do you know how to regenerate it?

Edit: I want to regenerate it because I'm getting errors that say Unrecognised configuration section userSettings.

Thanks!

will you show an app.config? Or we need to guessing? – MikkaRin Dec 01 '16 at 09:40
@MikkaRin I'm asking if there's a way to regenerate it. Mine now is just the default app.config. – Tvde1 Dec 01 '16 at 09:44
Check if this solution can work for you: [Rebuilding app.config](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15399216/rebuilding-app-config-in-visual-studio) – Josep B. Dec 01 '16 at 09:46
@JosepB. I tried that but it still shows up as default empty. Thanks anyways, – Tvde1 Dec 01 '16 at 09:48

A version control system like Git or Subversion would help here. You should post your defect app.config along with your question. – Jehof Dec 01 '16 at 09:50
@Jehof It would, too bad I have none. – Tvde1 Dec 01 '16 at 09:51
@Jehof I deleted it because I tried the answer that Josep B. gave me. – Tvde1 Dec 01 '16 at 09:52
Not sure but how about this [how to recreate app.config](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16948711/how-to-recreate-app-config-exe-config)? – StackUseR Dec 01 '16 at 10:26
@AshishSrivastava Sadly that didn't work, Thanks for your help anyways! – Tvde1 Dec 01 '16 at 10:44
