False, that's just silly. Everyone knows it's called tsparm.vault, not tsparm.ini.

True, but I always get those file names mixed up. Vault, Vaults, Vaulting... it's all the same to me!

I recall discussing tsparm.ini in class, and I think we concluded it was the main one. I hope I’m remembering that correctly!

I’m a bit confused. I thought there were multiple configuration files, so I’m leaning towards false, but I need to double-check.

Wait, I'm a bit confused. I thought the Vault's main config file was called something different. I'll have to double-check my materials.
