Could it be that you enabled Audit logging for Management Service and entered the path to the root folder.

These settings would give something similar to what you are seeing:

    <!-- ****** Audit logging ****** -->

    <!-- Enable logging of changes to QVPR. Requires restart of QMS after change. -->

    <add key="EnableAuditLogging" value="true"/>

    <!-- Folder where audit logs should be stored. Default is ApplicationDataFolder\AuditLog - -->

    <add key="AuditLogFolder" value="C:\ProgramData\QlikTech"/>

What package did you last install? It may be that someone *new* is either locking the folders (for its own use) or recreating them upon their disappearance...

Best,

Peter

Ah, I see. This is a directory version of the QVPR. Usually those directory names are xml files. Did you change anything to the Publisher database? Is someone making reports about the publisher (tasks and reloads?)

Found it...you have to edit the QVManagementService.exe.config in order to disable or enable it.
