It is now possible to store saplogon.ini and SapLogonTree.xml in a shared location on a server and configure SAP Logon on the workstation to use these shared files instead of the local ones. In this case, the administrator might have to resort to walking the user through editing their own settings to get things working again. Furthermore, the end user might change the file inadvertently, modifying or deleting an entry unintentionally, invariably resulting in a call to the Help Desk. Then the administrator would be required to use new scripts to push out new copies of the file, which would overwrite any customization the end user may have made. This worked well for new installs, but it didn’t help much with upgrades, or for distributing changes when the server landscape underwent a change. In many organizations, the administrator would create a default saplogon.ini and use scripting to push it to the client workstation in the appropriate folder during the SAPGUI installation. SAPGUI 7.10 stored saplogon.ini in the program’s installation folder ( C:\Program Files\SAP\FrontEnd\SAPGUI (on 32-bit for 64-bit machines substitute Program Files (x86) for Program Files), while SAPGUI 6.40 and earlier stored it in C:\Windows.

Older SAPGUIs used a different storage mechanism, and so if you upgrade from one of these to 7.30, saplogon.ini may still be found in the old locations (or may be copied from the old location to the new location).
#Sap installation gui windows
On Windows XP (from which hopefully by now all of you have migrated away, right?) the path would have been:
#Sap installation gui windows 7
By default, when SAPGUI 7.30 (or 7.20) is installed on a Windows 7 system, these two files will be created in:
Depending on options you set within SAPGUI or SAP Logon, there may be other configuration files as well, but these two are the ones of primary concern. The connection data for SAPGUI is stored in a file called saplogon.ini, and additional data about how connections are organized and displayed in SAP Logon is stored in SapLogonTree.xml. Now it’s time to create those entries in a central configuration file that you can share with your users. You don’t yet have any entries in SAP Logon, however. If you are continuing on from the previous step ( SAPGUI Installation Server Part 4 – Package Creation), then you have created a Package called Basic with several SAPGUI components in it, and you have installed SAPGUI on your own workstation using the Basic Package.
