Hi Siva,

The path to the documents that are to be accessed through the QlikView Server has to be configured. This path will typically reflect the default document location. Documents may also reside in sub folders of this folder. The Microsoft Windows file security applies for all user access to document folders and files, unless using the QlikView Server Document Metadata Service (DMS) Authorization mode.

For more Understanding please go through below URL:-

Hi,

the question is too much generic.

The root directory of any partition or folder is the "highest" directory in the hierarchy.

You can also think of it in general as the start or beginning of a particular folder structure.

The root directory contains all other folders in the drive or folder, and can of course also contain files.

But this is a general definition, not only for QlikView

If you can explain you could receive a better answer.
