Summary :
As of SAP GUI for Windows 7.20, the saplogon.ini and sapshortcut.ini files are stored in a new user-specific local file path, typically under %APPDATA%\SAP\Common. This change allows better personalization and security by keeping configuration files in a user's profile directory, rather than common SAP GUI installation or Windows directories. Configuration files like sapmsg.ini, saproute.ini, and service files remain unchanged in terms and location. Additionally, a new XML configuration file, SapLogonTree.xml, is introduced to manage tree structures in the SAP Logon interface, enhancing file organization and access in a single directory.
