Hello,
I am trying to config a elastic agent in a windows desktop application(winforms) in the .NET framework 4.8. My goal is to change the Agents Url and Service name, without having to use environment variables. I tried using Agent.Setup with Agent Components and putting the config details in app.config file in the , but no success. The Agent seems to ignore the app.config file and use the default values.
Does anyone know a way I could modify the Agents config without having to use the app or environmental variables. and also I was wondering if there was any resources on how to config an Agent in windows desktop application in .NET framework 4.8?
Some code I tried:
```auto
AgentComponents ac = new AgentComponents();
ac.Service.Name = "Something";
ac.Service.Environment = "dev";
Agent.Setup(ac);
```
