c# - WinRT - Roaming App Settings - Are they persisted across versions? -
i reading msdn article "accessing app data winrt":
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh464917.aspx
in section roaming app data says:
if app data on device updated new version because user installed newer version of app, app data copied cloud. system not update app data other devices on user has app installed until app updated on devices well.
it says roaming app data deleted if app not used 30 days.
i think "roaming app data" refers applicationdata.current.roamingfolder
.
i don't understand if same thing applies roaming settings (applicationdata.current.roamingsettings.values
). not shared across versions? deleted after not using app 30 days?
roamingsettings
use same engine roaming application folder. so, same restrictions apply. data may expired after 30 days if not accessed.
i'd suggest consider roaming settings convenience, , if 30 days issue, keep important settings locally , consider roaming convenient way synchronize settings when application used more frequently. potentially use onedrive store settings if needed.
there group policy settings can disable roaming , onedrive though.
