Here are some of the highlights of the new and updated features of QlikView.
QVF support
Support for the QVF file format was introduced already with the QlikView May 2021 release. With the QlikView May 2022 release, the QVF format will be the default file format.
The QVW file format will still work and will be the default save format for existing QVWs. If two documents have the same base name but different extensions, they will share the meta and shared files.
There is not yet any cross-compatibility between QlikView QVF files and Qlik Sense QVF files.
The default file format can be changed by setting the QvDefaultFileFormat parameter in C:\Users\{User}\AppData\Roaming\QlikTech\QlikView\settings.ini to either qvw or qvf.
.NET
The QlikView Server services have been upgraded to .NET 4.8.
