From

http://code.kx.com/wiki/Startingkdbplus/introduction#1.4_Install_Trial_System

in Windows:

c:\q                   / main q directory
c:\q\w32               / location of w32 executable

If you need to install q elsewhere, set the environment variable QHOME to point to the new directory. If QHOME is not defined, kdb+ defaults to $HOME/q for unix-based systems, and c:\q for Windows.
