Properties.Settings.Default.Save() store the user.config file in a directory with a hash

I try to save user settings. To save some data I used this code:

Properties.Settings settings = Properties.Settings.Default;
settings.Key1 = "value";
settings.Save();

but it saves the user.config file under the following path:

C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\[CompanyName]\[ExeName]_Url_[some_hash]\[Version]\user.config

this with the _Url_[some_hash] is pretty ugly, how can I remove it?
