This is a browseable representation of Oni's file hierarchy under Windows and the Mac OS.

The default location for this folder in Windows is C:\Program Files\Oni, and in Mac OS X it is /Applications/Oni.

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.

About the icons
Aqua Dot-Red.png = needed to run Oni (created while installing); Aqua Dot-Yellow.png = created while running Oni; Aqua Dot-Blue.png = less-important files.

Note
Not all Oni players may see all the files in this list; if they are marked with yellow, Oni may not have seen a need to create them (read about that file for more info); if they are blue, then don't even worry about them if they're missing.
This list is not exhaustive, either. Screenshots and "films" are dumped to this folder, with generic filenames. Also, a variety of debugging/authoring information can be dumped on demand, either from scripts or the Dev Mode console.
