## 2.2 Installation of Dynare

After installation, Dynare can be used in any directory on your computer. It is best practice to keep your model files in directories different from the one containing the Dynare toolbox. That way you can upgrade Dynare and discard the previous version without having to worry about your own files.

### 2.2.1 On Windows

Execute the automated installer called ‘`dynare-4.x.y-win.exe`’ (where 4.x.y is the version number), and follow the instructions. The default installation directory is ‘`c:\dynare\4.x.y`’.

After installation, this directory will contain several sub-directories, among which are ‘`matlab`’, ‘`mex`’ and ‘`doc`’.

The installer will also add an entry in your Start Menu with a shortcut to the documentation files and uninstaller.

Note that you can have several versions of Dynare coexisting (for example in ‘`c:\dynare`’), as long as you correctly adjust your path settings (see section Some words of warning).
