Manual folders setup (without Admin panel)

You can setup folders for users in the Data\Folders.xml file. It has XML format and you can use any text editor to edit it (e.g. Notepad).
If you don't know XML or have other problems with manual folders setup, use the Admin panel online tool. See available values of folders' paths, user names in the Admin panel online tool description as well.

Below is the example of Folders.xml default content. It provides access to "%APPROOT%\DemoFolder\Folder1" for demo user and %APPROOT%\DemoFolder\Folder2 for admin group.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Folders>
  <Folder>
    <Name>Demo folder 1</Name>
    <Location>%APPROOT%\DemoFolder\Folder1</Location>

Manual users setup (without Admin panel)

You can setup users in the Data\Accounts.xml file.
Look at the example of Accounts.xml content below. Two users ("demo" and "admin") are created here. "Admin" is in the "admins" group. Using this example you may create unlimited number of your own users and organize them in groups.
