For example, you can manage and tailor your application's lifetime, even applications such as single-instance applications and multi-SDI applications. Applications also have an environment that can be tailored by the user and kept between sessions in any of several mechanisms for storing settings, including environment variables, command line arguments, .config files, the Registry, special folders, and isolated storage.
