Several  folders are used to store files for IR Server Suite. However, the location of these folders and files can vary depending on the OS you use.

We have used a common method of naming these folders throughout the wiki and folder or file locations are always displayed in a different font.

There are basically two main areas where files are stored:

1. Program Files \ IR Server Suite
   where the IRSS application files are stored (i.e. C:\Program Files\IR Server Suite\ in Vista or Windows 7)
2. Program Data \ IR Server Suite
   where the IRSS configuration files are stored (i.e. C:\ProgramData\IR Server Suite\ in Vista or Windows 7)
