Default Install Directories (version 23)

Knowledge Base / Version 23 / System Admin Duties / General

Canary uses three directories for its software:

  • C:\Program Files\Canary - This is where Canary's applications reside.
  • C:\Historian Data - This is where the actual data is stored for each dataset. (Only created when the Historian service is installed.)
  • C:\ProgramData\Canary - This where Canary stores its program data used for its various services including Collectors, Calcs & Events, and Axiom user files.

Upon initially installing the software, the user has the option of changing these default locations.

If wishing to change these locations after the software has been installed, see How to Change the Data Historian Location and How to Change the Canary Base Path Location.
