Data Store Folder Security

The Personal Data Stores and Data Stores always reside in a folder called "Data Store". Note that in Working Papers version 2008 and lower, the folder was named "Store". All users have a Personal Data Store usually located (although this can be different depending on the operating system) in the following folder:

C:\Users\<user account name>\AppData\Local\CaseWare

  • The Data Store should be placed in a location such as a network file server that is accessible to all users who will need to connect to it. All users using the Data Store must have sufficient permissions to create, read, and write to the Data Store folder. In addition, the parent folder must have sufficient permissions to allow the Data Store to create the Data Store’s Data Store folder.

  • The SQL server must be accessible by all users who will be using the store. We recommend that the server be on the same Windows domain as users who will be accessing the store. If Windows Server Authentication is being used, the database administrator must grant access to all Windows domain users that will be connecting to the Data Store.
