Freeplane 1.2.x

Install

Go to 1.2.x and download Freeplane_bin-XXXX.zip, in which XXXX is a shown version number. Unpack the zip file, at any place you want. If your intention is to only test the new version: In Windows click freeplane.exe; you could also connect freeplane.exe to the task bar. If you want the new version to automatically start if you click on any mind map, just overwrite the direcories of the older version with those of the newer version. For other operating systems, see Systems.
