We can help you with that.

There should be a bunch of .conf files.

Look for ServerName and DocumentRoot. The DocumentRoot contains the path where the web files are.

I found the Documentroot and it's set to htdocs so what i thought i had to do was add a folder in there and a subfolder then put the txt file in it. This is for domain verification.

Yes, you can put there a file for the verification.
Add the file and see if you can open the URL in your browser.
