Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration

OpenEdge working directory reminder

If you have worked through the OpenEdge 10.1A Preinstallation Checklist for Windows, you are already aware of the point discussed in this section.

A working directory is a directory that contains your OpenEdge database and application files. The Installation Utility prompted you to create a working directory from which to run OpenEdge.

Caution: Never run OpenEdge products from the directory in which you installed them. If you do, you could damage the OpenEdge software files.
