Oasis montaj is by default installed as "Geosoft Desktop Applications 9" in the "Program filesFiles\Geosoft\" folder of your "C:" drive. Certain files required to support 32-bit interoperability may be installed in the "Geosoft Desktop Applications 9" folder of "Program Files (x86)\Geosoft\", but these can be disregarded for developers who intend to extend Oasis montaj or create stand-alone 64-bit programs.
