What was the difference between machine.config and
web.config files

Answer Posted / sandhya

1)Machine.config is used to store machine level settings
Web.config is used to store per application based settings

2)We can have more than one web.config files but only one
machine.config

3)Web.config overrides the machine.config file.

If we store different values on both for a single key, the
application will get the value from the web.config file
