App.config Settings File

Call Ctrl utilizes the standard Microsoft .NET Framework App.Config file for all application and user settings. Once Call Ctrl is installed the App.Config file is called CallCtrl.exe.config and is located in the installation directory.

The default installation location:

C:\Program Files\CTRL IT\Call Ctrl

CallCtrl.config can be modified using any text editor such as Notepad.exe. Any changes to the config file require Call Ctrl to be restarted.

User.config Settings File

The User.Config files are much like the App.config file, however they store settings specific to users and not to global application settings. These user settings are stored in separate files for each user. This allows different Windows profiles or logons to keep their own explicit settings without conflicting with the other users that may use the same computer. This also allows for more secure deployment as users may store sensitive information such as logon information which they would not want to share with other system users.

The default location per user:

• Vista or Windows 7
  C:\Users\ <<USERNAME>> \ AppData\Local\CTRL_IT_Inc\
  Variables can be used: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\CTRL_IT_Inc\

• XP
  C:\Documents and Settings\ <<USERNAME>> \Local Settings\Application Data\CTRL_IT_Inc
  Variables can be used: %USERPROFILE\Local Settings\Application Data\CTRL_IT_Inc
