On my machine, there's a single Posix-like tree rooted at d:/usr, with everything below it. Many (most?) installers will install the shared libraries into a single system directory (e.g., C:/WINDOWS/system32), unless you override the installation defaults, something the majority of users won't do. > On a POSIXy system, there are shared places for config files, libraries, > documentation, and so on.

One reason to be "relocatable" is to be able to easily run applications from the build or source tree, while a different version is installed on the system.
