My app returns to default Settings When in new Area

[VB 2012]

My Program changes it's My.settings to default , it looses the Location Where it is saved
This only happens when i move to a new area
But if i take a new builded exe and put it in same Dir of old exe then It Remembers old Settings

Anybody wanna share on how's this possible and maybe if there's a Fix or workaround
:)

it looses the Location Where it is saved

The Settings are getting old Properties from last Build App in dir somehow??

If your project increase the file version each time you build your project then the settings are back to default.

The "my.settings" are stored in the file "user.config" at the following path:
C:\Users\<your user name>\AppData\Roaming\<your company>\<your project>\<version number>\user.config

As example:
C:\Users\GeekByChoiCe\AppData\Roaming\Multiplayer Gaming Solutions\GV_ACS\3.0.1.0\user.config

in most cases the company name in the project is not set, so the folder will be "Microsoft".

Of wat GeekByChoiCe suggested

Okay i found Location but can someone help with Global Reading and writing (using ini,xml etc.)
