Question

Answer 1

You should use

<property description="Uploaded Images" name="alternatedocroot_1" value="from=/uploads/* dir=C:\Test\" />

and then drop your images into C:\Test\uploads\

or, for example, use

<property description="Uploaded Images" name="alternatedocroot_1" value="from=/uploads/* dir=C:\" />

and then drop your images into C:\uploads\
