QlikViewx86.wil for the x86 version and QlikViewx64.wil for the 64-bit version. Each time the installation
is run, a new file is generated, over writing the old log file.

file, Settings.ini, is located in C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\QlikTech\QlikView on Windows
Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8. On older systems, the file is found in C:\Documents and
