QvConnect64.exe and QvConnect32.exe are not digitally signed and cannot launch in restricted environments only allowing digitally signed software.
The EXE created in the APPDATA\Roaming directory is not digitally signed.
Environments:
QlikView Desktop 12.40
Resolution:
This is working as intended. However, a feature was introduced that allows for the configuration of a different temporary path.
Open the settings.ini file of the QlikView Desktop client.
- This is located in C:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\QlikTech\QlikView
- Add the following line:
QVConnectFolderTmpPath=C:\YourFolder\
- The line should be added between the [Settings 7] section and the [Authentication] section.
- Save the file.
After this, the qvconnect32.exe or qvconnect64.exe will be copied to the specified folder.
This functionality is available beginning with:
QlikView November 2017 (12.20 SR 7)
QlikView November 2018 (12.30 IR)
QlikView April 2019 (12.40 IR)
Cause:
Each time that QlikView is executed it overwrites the "QvConnect" files in the folder C:\Users\ <USER>\AppData\Local\Temp\QVConnect\
QlikView use the QvConnect files located in the folder C:\Users\ <USER>\AppData\Local\Temp\QVConnect\to configure the db connection.
This .exe is not signed.
