# Preparing for Installation

Before downloading and extracting the installation package, ensure that the system meets all the prerequisites and decide on the installation environment and folder.

- TIBCO_HOME is the top-level installation directory for TIBCO products.
- TIBCO_HOME is referred to as the installation environment.

Installation environments isolate software installations; a software installed into an installation environment does not automatically access components in other environments. An installation environment consists of

- A name that identifies the environment and it is appended to the name of the Windows services created by the installer. It is a component of the path to the product in the Windows Start > All Programs menu.
- A folder that contains the installed software. When you install, you can choose a new installation environment or an existing installation environment.

If a previous installation of a TIBCO product did not use the TIBCO Universal Installer, the TIBCO Universal Installer does not detect the folder it uses as an installation environment folder. If you want to use the existing location as the installation folder, create a new installation environment and choose the folder where the other products exist.
