Here is the actual code snippet to parse FB2 format book using C#. FB2 File format is known as FictionBook format. FB2 is rather simple file format based on XML and basic HTML. The FB2 file contains sections. Sections can contain other sections as well as paragraphs. Paragraphs contain actual text and basic formatting. 

The program below loads all sections recursively and print their names to console. Also one can use the fb2verse variable to get the actual text of the paragraph. The approach below uses the XDocument class to get the XElements. The only trick with further parsing is to use the correct XNamespace. 

If you are writing some installer application, want to update system files, apply settings of for some other reason, you may need to shutdown (reboot, power off) a Windows 10 computer. The good news is that Windows has a pretty straightforward API for this intent, which is called ExitWindowsEx. It has only two parameters. The first one is the flags parameter which you can set to either reboot or power-off and the second one - the reboot reason, which is only used on servers and is not mandatory.  But the bad news is that the functions won't work as-is. In order to make it work, you need to enable the shutdown privilege, which is disabled by default. I advise you to enable this privilege only directly before you decide to shut down. 

If you are writing console application in C# and need to use the database connection, probably you would like to store the connection string in the App.config file. This is a common practice for C#.NET applications. But how to read the connection string from the file? See the answer below: 

ConnectionString = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionStringName"].ConnectionString;
