Hello Nik,

In your scenario I recommend you to use this approach:

Set the path(s) dynamically in the Page_Load event
Check whether the path(s) that will be set to the RadFileExplorer's VIewPaths property already exists:
Directory.Exists(Server.MapPath(virtualPath))
If the path does not exist then create it :
Directory.CreateDirectory(Server.MapPath(virtualPath))

The code should look like similar to this:

Protected Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

Dim viewPaths As String() = New String() {"~/ROOT"}

If Not System.IO.Directory.Exists(Server.MapPath(viewPaths(0))) Then

System.IO.Directory.CreateDirectory(Server.MapPath(viewPaths(0)))

End If

' "~/ROOT" already exists

RadFileExplorer1.Configuration.ViewPaths = viewPaths

End Sub

I hope this helps.

Best wishes,
