XML Rootelement error

I have an error in my XML file. The error list say: "Application Configuration file "App.config" is invalid. The 'configuration' start tag on line 3 position 2 does not match the end tag of 'rootElement'. Line 25, position 7."

Errors messages are helpful, when the code is present.

Maybe this link will help you better: I just tried to look line by line but couldn't spot it right off. I'm almost certain it is something small that is being overlooked. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/framework/configure-apps/file-schema/application-settings-schema By the way, thank you for displaying the code...
