  IIS 7 incorrectly strips values from web.config when adding a Script Map Reply Contact I've noticed that when you add a script map in IIS 7, IIS will alter your web.config and actually remove values it has nothing to do with. For example,    <applicationSettings>     <Dealers.Web.Properties.Settings>       <setting name="Dealers_Web_UserAgentsService_UserAgentsService"         serializeAs="String">         <value>http://useragents.vertagen.com/UserAgentsService.asmx</value>       </setting>     </Dealers.Web.Properties.Settings> </applicationSettings> Is changed to <applicationSettings>     <Dealers.Web.Properties.Settings>       <setting name="Dealers_Web_UserAgentsService_UserAgentsService" serializeAs="String">         <value></value>       </setting>     </Dealers.Web.Properties.Settings> </applicationSettings> It appears that if IIS sees any value in your web.config that is stored in a <tag>value</tag> format, it will strip the value out.   I think its easy to see that this is a serious problem, does anyone know if there's a work-around or patch available?
