Hi All,

I am trying to encrypt appsettings of app.config file by using following code:

String path = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "..\\..\\App.Config";
Configuration config = ConfigurationManager.OpenExeConfiguration(path);
ConfigurationSection appSettings = config.GetSection("appSettings");
appSettings.SectionInformation.ForceSave = true;
appSettings.SectionInformation.ProtectSection("ProtectedConfigurationSection");
config.Save();

Neither I m getting any error Nor appsetting are getting encrypted. Now, What Should I do to ENCRYPT appsettings?

Really need help!

Regards!
