title: Web.config - read applicationSettings
body: <p>I am using VS2015, C#.</p>
  
  <p>I've created a couple of settings via project properties - settings. Some of them are saved here:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  &lt;configSections&gt;
      &lt;sectionGroup name="applicationSettings" type="System.Configuration.ApplicationSettingsGroup, System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" &gt;
        &lt;section name="Calendar.Properties.Settings" type="System.Configuration.ClientSettingsSection, System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" requirePermission="false" /&gt;
      &lt;/sectionGroup&gt;
    &lt;/configSections&gt;
  
  
  &lt;applicationSettings&gt;
      &lt;Calendar.Properties.Settings&gt;
        &lt;setting name="RedirectUriDEBUG" serializeAs="String"&gt;
          &lt;value&gt;https://localhost:44367/Login/RedirectGoogle&lt;/value&gt;
        &lt;/setting&gt;
        &lt;setting name="RedirectUriPRODUKCIJA" serializeAs="String"&gt;
          &lt;value&gt;https://ztest30.franjobrekalo.com/Login/RedirectGoogle&lt;/value&gt;
        &lt;/setting&gt;
        &lt;setting name="LogPathDEBUG" serializeAs="String"&gt;
          &lt;value&gt;C:\Users\Frenky\Desktop\AdministrationLog.txt&lt;/value&gt;
        &lt;/setting&gt;
        &lt;setting name="LogPathPRODUKCIJA" serializeAs="String"&gt;
          &lt;value&gt;h:\root\home\frenkyb-001\www\administration\AdministrationLog.txt&lt;/value&gt;
        &lt;/setting&gt;
        &lt;setting name="LogPathTEST" serializeAs="String"&gt;
          &lt;value&gt;h:\root\home\frenkyb-001\www\testnotes\AdministrationLog.txt&lt;/value&gt;
        &lt;/setting&gt;
      &lt;/Calendar.Properties.Settings&gt;
    &lt;/applicationSettings&gt;

  <p>ApplicationSettings section was generated by visual studio. Now I need to read from applicationSettings. I've tried numerous solutions, to my surprise, nothing worked. It seems that reading from appSettings is easy or from connectionStrings. Why is the problem with generated applicationSettings section?</p>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong></p>
  
  <p>Problem is with applicationSettings not with appSettings.</p>
