QlikView May 2022 (12.70): .qvf is the new default file format for saving files - how to change that?

[Daniele_Purrone]

QlikView May 2022 now, by default, saves files in .qvf format. Is it possible to revert to .qvw as the default?

Follow these steps:

1. Edit the Desktop client's settings.ini file following these instructions
2. The value to add to the [Settings 7] section is "QvDefaultFileFormat=qvw" (without quotes).
   
   

In order to revert the change, the setting can be changed to "QvDefaultFileFormat=qvf"

Environment

QlikView May 2022 (12.70) IR or higher

Also after upgrading to Qlikview to 2023 SR2 all the users are able to open the Qlikview desktop directly by clicking on the Icon...except one user
that user is getting pop up message as below

Do you have any idea why is this happening?

@Nilesh not quite relevant for this thread. 
However I just experienced the same issue. Had to do repair installation and issue was fixed for me.
