Hii

Root Folder is the default folder from where the Accesspoint will get the documents in first place. It will show as well any document in a folder within the Root Folder.

A mounted folder may not respect the hierarchy, being in a different place (even in a different partition) from the root folder, but have QlikView documents as well.

One document should be only in one place. It will affect the license assignments, so one document in one folder shouldn't be moved to another.

The root folder is a required folder. That is where QVS stores the PGO files (license information).
