Do you want to use the user-settings from the visual studio menu menu project -> <project name> properties -> tab "settings" ? You can reachted those values with Properties.Settings.Default.<name of propertie> https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/15013/Windows-Forms-User-Settings-in-C https://www.dotnetperls.com/settings Do you need to create the setting at runtime or do you just want to change the value of the setting at runtime.

This is to little information. A user setting is usually something you know when you are designing a form Name PassWord etcc.. You can create those in menu project -> <project name> properties -> tab "settings" after you did create the settings in the this menu, you can use their value UserNameTextBox.Text = Properties.Settings.Default.UserName Properties.Settings.Default.UserName = UserNameTextBox.Text ok PassWord is a bad example but that is another question What do you want to do ?

use Properties.Settings.Default.Save(); to save the usersetting. In this link they make the user setting at runtime. https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/c52b4fc6-66be-44ce-8a65-ab548f6f4f04/add-user-properties-settings-at-run-time?forum=csharpgeneral
