What Does Isolated Storage Mean?

Isolated storage is a mechanism that provides data isolation, safety and storage by associating code with persistent data. Isolated storage is designed to prevent data corruption and access to application-specific data, while providing a standard data storage and retrieval system that’s inaccessible to users, folders or applications. Isolated storage serves as a virtual file system managed by the .NET Common Language Runtime (CLR). Because it is a file system component, stream and serialization methods may be used to read and write data. The default and modifiable size is one megabyte.
