Convert SETTINGS to CONFIG

QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert SETTINGS to CONFIG?
Yes - SETTINGS converts to CONFIG.

At build time, Visual Studio / MSBuild automatically generates the app.config (for Application-scope settings) and user.config (at runtime for User-scope settings) from the .settings file. This is a build process, not a manual conversion.
