My MLwiN download does not work

Please go to MLwiN ordering FAQs for the answer to this enquiry

MLwiN beta

Should I uninstall the MLwiN 2.10 beta version I have before installing a later version?

Yes, to ensure the correct operation of MLwiN you must remove any beta version before installation.

I already have MLwiN 2.10 beta but the upgrade to the latest version will not work

You must also have version 2.02 installed if you wish to upgrade from previous 2.10 beta versions to subsequent 2.10 versions. If you do not own a previous version you will need to purchase the program. If you have purchased or been eligible for MLwiN 2.10 (any beta) and do not have version 2.02 installed, therefore are unable to upgrade for free, please email us with proof of purchasing (eg, purchasing number) or re-apply for the free download if eligible.

Trial versions

Can I use the tutorial /Lemma version of MLwiN to practice loading my own data (in SPSS/Stata /Minitab) into MLwiN, or do I need the full version for this?

Data input and output for the teaching version of MLwiN is limited to specially marked MLwiN worksheets, so you will not be able to load your SPSS files using this version.

MLwiN training/full version

What is the difference between the training, the trial version and the full version?

The training version of MLwiN has identical functionality to the full MLwiN except that it can only read specially marked worksheets. The trial version is exactly the same as the full version except that it expires after 30 days.
