Hi Narayan,

Basically there will be three types of files in your qlikview folder other then .QVW

1) .pgo file consist the license details (session , document , user CAl)

2) .meta file contains document properties details (i.e , document category, distribution list information e.t.c)

3) .Shared file contains the details of all the shared object created by the user for the respected report.

Have a look at below post too.

Hi Narayan,

These files are created in server by default when u push the .qvw file into server location

.Meta is created once u place the qvw file into location

.Shared file is created when ever the .qvw files is opened in " Access point"

if u have QV server connection then these files are visible to u
