I've been searching by articles related to XML + application settings and I've found quite a few, this means that people like to save things this way. I mean, have their own XML file and save their settings there instead of using the built-in AppSettingsReader class.
Why is that?
Is there a problem in using the app.config/user.config files to store application settings?
Basically, what I want to know is the problems and/or cons that you can list by using app.config/user.config to store application settings. I don't really care about the pros right now, just the cons of using this method.
