  Hi JagjitSingh,

  According to your description, I suggest you could firstly open the references tag in your project and make sure you have already added the System.Configuration reference.

  Like below:

  

  If you don't find this reference, I suggest you couold follow below steps to add the reference.

  Notice: Make sure your .net farmework version larger than 2.0

  1. Right-click on references tab to add reference.
  2. Click on Assemblies tab
  3. Search for 'System.Configuration'
  4. Click OK.

  Best Regards,

  Brando
