Hello @lu2021 

 

As far as I know, the relative paths option serves to avoid placing the full path of a source file so it's easier to move your project. I don't think it is related to the folder in which you can save a qvd, but I'm not sure about this.

 

Anyway, If you want to save a qvd into a specific location you'll have to specify the appropriate path. Something like:

 

STORE QvdName INTO FolferA\QvdName.qvd;

The above sentence will save the Qvd into a FolderA that must be placed right next to your QVW.

 

You can also specify the complete path:

STORE QvdName INTO C:\Users\User\Desktop\QvdName.qvd;

 

Or jump between folder levels:

STORE QvdName INTO ..\..\FolderA\QvdName.qvd;

 

Hope it helps;

 

Thanks,

Padma Priya
