Can't find Oracle folder in Registry Editor

Rajarshi RouthApr 7 2021

Hello All,
I have recently downloaded Oracle SQL developer version 20.4.1.407. I need the SID No. . I was checking the few Youtube videos few of them suggested to check Oracle folder Registry Editor. However I can't find it. Some also suggested I check in services.msc there also I cannot find. Can anyone guide me on this.
I use a Windows 10 (64 bit) OS
Thanks in adavance

SQL Developer doesn't put anything in the registry.
From your reference to SID, I assume you are looking for a database. SQL Developer is only a client tool, it doesn't come with a database.
You will need to download and install the database software as well. The easiest thing to do is to download express edition
Oracle Database Express Edition (XE) Downloads (0 Bytes)

What Jim said, we don't have an installer, we don't put anything into the registry.
I think we'll check the registry for an Oracle Client/HOME, but we write all of our application settings to your AppData folder, under Roaming Profiles.
