File Navigation Options for the SAS Studio Basic Edition

The root directories that are available in the Server Files and Folders section depend on whether you specify to show the system root directory. You can specify whether to show the system root directory by using the webdms.showSystemRoot option in the config.properties file.
  • If the showSystemRoot option is set to False, the Server Files and Folders section displays an empty Folder Shortcuts folder and a Files folder. If you are running SAS Studio Basic on Windows, the Files folder is mapped to your My Documents folder. If you are running SAS Studio Basic on UNIX, the Files folder is mapped to your home directory.
