For Visual Studio 2010 Web based application we have Config Transformation features by which we can maintain multiple configuration files for different environments. But the same feature is not available for App.Config files for Windows Services/WinForms or Console Application.

There is a workaround available as suggested on the following link.

However it is not straightforward and requires no of steps. Is there an easier way to achieve the same for App.Config files?
