    For how to set up file storage take a look at  this link -

    docs.microsoft.com/.../setup-deploy-on-premises-pu12

    Regarding the format , you can configure file types in the application which can control  the types of files that users can attach to records.

    Hi Sachin,

    The files are probably not encrypted. They don't have a meaningful file name and no extension. The details of the file are stored in the DocuRef (and possibly DocuValue) table.
