Don't know if this belongs in the C# forum or here, so feel free to move it if you guys feel it would better fit elsewhere.

I have a C# winform app I built that is used for connecting to a game. What I want to do is allow an administrator of a server to download the application, set some stuff up in it like their server IP, port, updater URL, etc., and then distribute that to other players so they don't have to manually re-add that information.

I could always add an app.config or a configuration file to the application, but I was hoping to somehow allow the admin to embed all the data so all the user ever receives is the single .exe.

I could always build something that makes an installer for the user, but I was hoping to avoid that step.

Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Thanks!
