EndNote: Install

• Check your computer and word processor are compatible
• If the latest version is not compatible install an earlier version

Before you begin installing:

• Print or have the installation instructions open on your computer
• Follow each step carefully so the software installs correctly

• Uninstall any previous versions of EndNote
• Downloading on a PC? Do not run the install from your 'Downloads' folder. Move the folder to another location e.g. Desktop

When you create a new library a .enl file and a .data folder will be created. EndNote needs both to work properly, keep in the same location and with matching names.

• In EndNote select File > New
• Rename MyEndNoteLibrary to something meaningful e.g. your name
• We recommend saving to your computer. Do not save in Cloud Storage or it may become corrupted.

Watch the Create a New Library video for more information.
