The default Oracle base path is mountpoint/app/user, where user is the user account running the installation.

On Microsoft Windows systems:

The default Oracle base path is DRIVE_LETTER:\app\user

You can change the path based on your requirements.

Software Location - In the Software Location field, accept the default values or enter the Oracle home directory path in which you want to install Oracle software. The directory path should not contain spaces.
