Saving files ousite joomla folder

[emal011]

Well, I have Joomla installed in a Server, windows server.
We work with IIS, etc, etc..

So, we have a HD(hard disk) where we have Joomla, but for security reason I was thinking if we can save the files outside joomla folder...

[Hard Disc]
|-[Folder]->For example, i want to make this folder, the download folder.
|-[wwwdefault]-[joomla]
|-[Folder]

There is possible to make it? I already read the documentation, and it say "you cannot set the Direct Link parameter", so that´s mean, I can use ../../folder??

Hi, you can set the folder for download outsite the public_html. But of course, if there will be files to play or to preview, these cannot be reached by clicking in browser as there can be accessed only files in public_html (for display or preview function, download can work with this)
