AddASetting.md does not appear to be up-to-date #20550
Description
Description of the new feature
I am trying to implement issue #6820 and am using AddASetting.md to do so. However, when trying to follow the instructions I notice that the instructions don't seem to match existing elements. The instructions say to declare the setting in Profile.h (or in my case, GlobalAppSettings.h), but the settings seem to be defined in Profile.idl instead, and the lines of code the instructions say to add to Profile.idl don't seem to be present for any other settings in that file.
I would like this implementation to not simply work but follow the design practices of the existing window settings. Is this guide out-of-date, and if it isn't why is the guide's implementation so different from the existing implementations?
