A Correct answer
Explanation

Web.config is an XML-based configuration file for ASP.NET applications. It stores application-wide settings including connection strings, custom application variables, authentication rules, and compilation settings. It does NOT configure the web server (that's web.config for IIS or machine.config) or the web browser (browser settings are client-side). The answer correctly identifies its purpose for storing global application information.
