EMarketOffer creates two separate directory structures during installation:

  • Program files
  • Data files


Program Files

During the installation process you can choose where EMarketOffer places its program files (default C:\Program Files\Ellsoft\EMO). This folder contains the EMarketOffer executable and the dlls (dynamic link libraries) required by the program.

Warning! You should not attempt to modify or move the location of any of these files after installation - doing so will cause the program to malfunction.
