When you save a questionnaire file, UNICOM Intelligence Author adds this folder to store template files and image files that you attach to the questionnaire. A copy of the .mdd file is also saved to this folder when you activate the file, so that the activation process can upload all the required files to UNICOM Intelligence Interviewer - Server Admin. For more information, see Creating and saving questionnaire files.

When UNICOM Intelligence Author is installed in a Windows Vista or 7 environment, the associated layout files and IOM logs are in the C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming directory.
