Installation process (PC & Mac)
When the Oni CD is inserted, the installation will automatically start with the following steps :
- Language selection : if you happen to have e.g. the European edition of Oni, you can choose between e.g. English, German and French
- Installation process itself : usual stuff (software licence agreement, installation folder selection...)
- Installation of DirectX : skip this, as the version of DirectX provided with Oni is very old.
(Mac users, if parts of the process do not apply to Mac, please put those part in italics or otherwise indicate them as applying to PC only)
A shortcut is automatically generated and placed on your desktop. You're only one click away from your Oni experience...
Blam, Oni crashed?
Damn! Go straight to the Troubleshooting page.

| C:\Program Files\Oni | Default location of the folder on your hard drive | |
| Subfolders | ||
| GameDataFolder | A subfolder with movies, scripts and binary resources | |

| key_config.txt | The key configuration file | |
| readme.txt | The readme file | |
| ONI.url RegisterOni.url |
URL locations | |
| Files generated on execution | ||
| persist.dat | That's where your progress is saved | |

Registry entries (PC)
Oni doesn't create any registry entries. So the whole installation folder can be moved around, copied and kept as a backup.
A backup copy of your installation folder is thus enough to "reinstall" Oni.
However, unless you get rid of the CD check, you still need to have the Oni CD in the drive to play (actually, any CD will do, as long as its volume name is ONI...)
