KeyView 23.3

# Directory Structure

Viewing SDK creates the following directory structure during installation. The variable `install` refers to the installation directory. By default, the installation directory is `C:\MicroFocus\KeyViewViewingSDK-version`, where `version` is the KeyView version number.

The variable `OS` is the operating system for which the SDK is installed. For example, the `bin` directory on a standard 32-bit Windows installation would be located at `C:\MicroFocus\KeyViewViewingSDK\WINDOWS\bin`.
