Ok, I wan't to make an app, and one of its features will be a selection in a menu strip that will let you put a link to an app on your computer, and save that link, so when you click on the option, your saved link will open...

Simplify

-Click option
-Navigate to the "YOUR APP HERE" button
-Click it to put you app here
-Open file dialog pops up
-Find your app
-It gets saved to the button

Language is C#

Thanks guys

Ohh wow, I saw the Open your app here, I feel stupid now. So im guessing you want to save the path of the application you open? Use a stream reader and save it to a text file.

No, use a Stream Writer.

Just use embedded settings for this...look up a tut for that. The string will be saved inside the exe itself...no need for a crappy external txt file.
