Please don't re-post.
I already asked you to explain what do you want to achieve. Please don't repeat what you already said. Explain from the very beginning.

Solution 2

Yes, you can use Environment variables in the values in a configuration file.
BUT: before you use one of those values, you have to resolve the environment variables. You can use Environment.ExpandEnvironmentVariables for that purpose.
