I have a program I am working on. First I will explain what I have done and then get to the question. I have created a undo and redo functions that when undo, it deletes one character at a time from the string and puts it in a 'List<char>'. Then when you click redo, it goes to the 'List' and adds each character back to the string and deletes it from the list, one character at a time. You can see in the pictures the undo and redo menu button click events for them in the 1st pic. They get their functions from the 2nd pic., the undo redo class. I also have a keydown and text change function shown in pic. 3. All functions work good but the clearing of the 'list' that remains if they don't 'redo' all commands. I can undo and redo and have no problems, but I want it to delete the list contents after the user starts to type again after undoing and redoing. I have tried to put it in the text change but it keeps firing every time the list is over '0' and after the menu redo is enabled. I have tried putting in the buttons function, and I even tried to do the stack<char> process, but I could not get my head wrapped around that option. I know that 'richTxtDirections.Text = richTxtDirections.Text.Remove(richTxtDirections.Text.Length - 1);' deletes 1 character, but how do you say if the 'text.length +1' from where you stop to undo and redo, how to add a character. I hope I am explaining this fine for you to understand and that someone can possibly help me with this part, even if it is not adding 1 to the text.length. Thank you.

private void menuUndoEdit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            menuUndoEditClicked = true;

            //accesses the undo function to undo last command
            UndoRedo.undo();

                richTxtDirections.Text = richTxtDirections.Text.Remove(richTxtDirections.Text.Length - 1);

                //positions the cursor at the end of the text

I have this class User:

    [Serializable()]
    [XmlRoot("Users")]
    public class Users
    {
        [XmlArrayItem(typeof(User))]
        public List<User> UsersList { get; set; }
    }


    [Serializable()]
    public class User
    {
        [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttribute("ID")]
        public string ID { get; set; }

        [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Name")]
        public string Name { get; set; }

        [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Username")]
        public string Username { get; set; }

        [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Password")]
        public string Password { get; set; }

        [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("Email")]
        public string Email { get; set; } = string.Empty;
    }
	
	
And this:
  private void Serialization()
        {
            var path = @"D:\Projects\repo\xml\users.xml";
            var newUsers = new Users();
            newUsers.UsersList = new List<User>();
            
                var user = new User
                ();
                user.Email = txtEmail.Text;
                user.Name = txtName.Text;
                user.Password = txtPass.Text;
                user.ID =txtID.Text;
                newUsers.UsersList.Add(user);

            XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(Users));
            using (TextWriter writer =  new StreamWriter(path,true))
            {
                serializer.Serialize(writer, newUsers);
            }
        }

And it saves this xml:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Users xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
	<UsersList>
		<User ID="A">
			<Name>a</Name>
			<Password>a</Password>
			<Email>a</Email>
		</User>
	</UsersList>
</Users><?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Users xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
	<UsersList>
		<User ID="SSSS">
			<Name>s</Name>
			<Password>s</Password>
			<Email>ss</Email>
		</User>
	</UsersList>
</Users>


But I want to save the xml file in this format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Users xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
	<UsersList>
		<User ID="A">
			<Name>a</Name>
			<Password>a</Password>
			<Email>a</Email>
		</User>
		<User ID="SSSS">
			<Name>s</Name>
			<Password>s</Password>
			<Email>ss</Email>
		</User>
	</UsersList>
The most important thing is that I have a windows form with some textboxes and every time I run the application and register a new user I want it to pe added in <UsersList> not overwritten over the existing ones
