I have install salt-minion on windows machine and made it masterless.

Where do i keep state files, so that salt is able to find them.

Currenlty, when i keep it in C:\salt and run salt-call state.sls test -l debug, i get the following log,

[DEBUG   ] LazyLoaded roots.envs
[DEBUG   ] Could not LazyLoad roots.init: 'roots.init' is not available.
[DEBUG   ] Updating roots fileserver cache

Salt keeps state files in the directory(ies) configured by the file_roots variable. To find the location(s), run from a command prompt:

python2 -c 'import salt.config; master_opts = salt.config.client_config("/etc/salt/master"); print(master_opts["file_roots"])'
