[2.0] can't read the content in <appSettings> in the config file

I am trying to read content in the <appsettings> tag in the config file in my windowsservice application. for some reason, I can't get any thing.

FileWatcherService.exe.Config file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<configuration>

<appSettings>


<add key="FileNameAndPath" value="C:\Code\SavvysoftValuations" />


</appSettings>

</configuration>

Code to read:

_FilePath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings.Get("FileNameAndPath");

Try this if your using 2.0.

Code:

---

_FilePath = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["FileNameAndPath"]

---
