Are the default configuration files necessary?

If I want to use my own configuration file for my app, do I need to include all of the default keys included in the standard configuration file?

Depends.

 

 

Spoiler

The ini generated from a build are in most cases driven by the setting in the LabVIEW.ini file that are current when the build is done. Some of those setting only affected the development environment while others control what is going on at run-time. An example of the latter are things like VI-Server, VI-Server access list default ports etc. So if your application does not DEPEND on those settings most of what is in the ini file is fluff.

 

Now if you find something in the ini file makes a difference after experimenting, please update this thread to share your finding with others that may follow in your foot-steps.
