Please Note: The virtual table “VCFL_VirtualClientFile” only has 125 records. This means that it will not display all files and folders if you have more than ~120 files hosted on your server. In that case, please create more records and make sure the serial number will be sequential. Also, as this table is used for displaying clients as well, it will only display up to 125 clients, unless you add more records to the table.
