By default there are a lot of settings automatically inserted into a
web.config file. Where can I find detailed documentation about each
individual setting? I am looking to streamline my site so that it does not
load components that I do not require. But rather than go through trial and
error of removing each one individually, I'd like to be able to read about
what each setting does.

Hi MCM,

As for ASP.NET web.config elements, you can find the related schema and
elements definition in the MSDN library. Here is the web url of the MSDN
library:

#system.web Element (ASP.NET Settings Schema)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dayb112d.aspx

If you have local version installed, you can also lookup the <system.web>
root element in it via index and probing other child elements.

Sincerely,

Steven Cheng
