If you want to mange settings in an ini file, check out QSettings - saves you the trouble of manually worrying about reading and writing in to a file - you just set the settings by they name.

you need to read the file until where place is where you want to edit it, read the rest of the file, but save the data in memory, seek() back to the place where you want to edit, append your new string, append the rest of the file which you hold in memory, close the file.
