Depending on where the QVS root folder is located

We can just able to start  Qlikview server and Directory Service Connector services. I attached the error we got. Also you can see the windows log files. ! we have already given necessary rights(read&right) to specified folders in windows logs.

Is your User a member of the QlikView Administrators Group ?

[I found the table you supplied somewhat confusing]

Does the service account have access to the mounted folders?

Yes. We have added the user to Qlikview Administrator group.

The table I put there shows us  the locations  some folders that we have to give read&write permissions. It looks lıke confusing you re right but in the word file I attached is more understandible.

Thanks

I suppose you're using IIS? Can you check giving admin right access to the acount if everyone is working fine? Might be possible that e.g. the registration of a domain/port on IIS requires the execution of the respective service with admin access.

We are not using IIS    I m suspected about ports that is why I turned off firewall but no result.

From the Release Notes:

"The QlikView Server services are designed to run as local administrator. Running with an

account that is not local administrator is an unsupported scenario."

The Document you used is an old one and it showed that running the services without local Admin Rights caused several issues.
