This is a browseable representation of Oni's file hierarchy under Windows and macOS. You can use it to verify that you have all the needed files; it can also educate you on the details of what each file does, or how Oni finds its game data. Click on a folder's name to go down to that level of the hierarchy; click on a file's name to read more about that file.

Installation location

The default location for this folder in Windows is C:\Program Files\Oni, or C:\Program Files (x86)\Oni on 64-bit systems. The Russian installer adds another level with the publisher's name: C:\Program Files (x86)\Buka\Oni.

There is no default location on Macs because modern Macs cannot run the installer on the CD-ROM, and so users must drag the "Oni ƒ" folder manually to their hard drive.

Warning for non-admins

If you are not logged into Windows as an administrator, Oni will save persist.dat, debugger.txt, key_config.txt and startup.txt in C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\Oni. This does not apply to an installation of the AE or a manual installation of Oni. Right-clicking Oni.exe and choosing "Run as administrator" will cause Oni to save the aforementioned files in the Oni folder itself. However this will mean you have two save-game files, with either one being written to depending on whether you run Oni as admin or not.

Your initial Oni installation will probably have all the red and blue files. For files marked with yellow, Oni may not have seen a need to create them yet (follow that file name's link for more info).
