    What Does rootUrl Do (In FileSystemProviders.config)?

    Documentation: https://our.umbraco.com/Documentation/Reference/Config/fileSystemProviders/index-v7

    This is the rootUrl I am referring to:

    Screenshot of the Umbraco documentation version of the FileSystemProviders.config file

    What does this element do?

    I noticed it was set to an incorrect value on one of my websites, but I am wary of correcting it before I actually understand what it does. Currently, it does not appear to be negatively impacting the site in any way as far as I can tell.

    The website is on Umbraco 7.6.13 if that helps.

    To answer my own question, it appears the rootUrl element is commented out in my case, so that explains why it wasn't causing any issues.

    Otherwise, it'd probably change the URL to media items (e.g., in the back office link to the media item, and the URL that gets rendered on the frontend).
