I am a beginner using 2008 Express and I am trying to get my application to remember and restore some combobox values. It seems to work fine if the application is opened and closed normally but for some reason it loses the settings if it is opened from the startup folder.
Here is how the startup link is formed:
Dim shortcutFile As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Startup) & "FBNav.lnk"
If Not IO.File.Exists(shortcutFile) Then

To start with, I know that applications scope settings are read only, and user scope settings are read/write. My problem is this: I am creating an application which will be used in a setting where an "administrative" user (admin in this case does not denote any computer ability whatsoever- just the one in control of the computer) will be installing my application onto a computer where several users will likely use the application. I have a number of program settings which I would like the administrative user to be able to set, and have those settings be used for all users who run the program.

I am developing an application that uses Sendkeys function to output data in another application such as Notepad. But if the user changes the regional settings some characters like "/" change according to the language. Can I retrieve and set the regional settings of another application such as Notepad ? Is there another way to do that ?

I have three radiobuttons in a groupbox. When they are not bound to application settings, they behave normally.After binding each of their checked properties to application settings, the following happens: I have to click an uncheckedradiobutton two times to have it checked. After the first click, all three are unchecked.

I have a label that reads a random line from a text file and that string becomes the text for the label.
Now the problem; the label will only work if it is clicked because the event handler is click.What I need is this to work automatically at startup. In other words, it should change the label's text to the random string of the text file on startup of the application.
Here is my code.[code..]

How can I show a Window on the first startup of the application that isn't the main form?I just want to show a window on the first startup with a textbox and a submit button. To get to the main form, the user must enter at least 10 characters into that textbox. The startup form is then always just the main form if they get it right. If there isn't 10 characters when submit is pressed, the program exits.
It needs to be reasonably secure, ie not just a text file in the same folder called 'unlocked' or something.Preferably a hidden registry entry to store whether the main form has been unlocked or not.

I just wondered if you can or can't save arrays using the settings system object. There seems to be no way of entering it at designtime. It seems implied you cannot create new user settings.subobjects at runtime. I'm looking to find the easiest way to save a populated array of PictureBox's. If the only way is a self/custom made/managed .ini file then I need to know so i can start on that but I was hoping to use some of all this phaff in the new frameworks usefully.

Is there a way to maintain application modified Settings in the settings files after a program update? i.e. I have 10 or so values in the settings file and the users can modify them... when I send a program update they revert back to what I initially programmed them to be.

I was wondering if it is possible to change the Proxy settings("Automatically Detect Settings") in IE without making the change to the registry. I wasn't sure if the Hive is similar in all operating systems, So I figured there has to be an API to make the change, also without having the restart the IE or the computer for that matter.

I want to programmatically change the Startup and Recovery options in Windows Server 2008? To be more specific...
- I'm writing my application in VB.NET 2.0 using VS2008
- I want to enable "Automatically restart"
- I want to set "Write debugging information" to none
That's it. I found a thread that speculated it might be do-able using System.Management but after looking through the documention in the library I can't find which might do that.
Note: It looks like this might be possible using BCDEdit (which I could call through a Shell command) but I can't find the syntax for that either. I only mention it because that would be a solution to my problem if it can't be done internally from the program I'm writing.
