I'm running Canopy 64-bit as my IDE on my osX 10.9 and I wanted to do a clean uninstall but I can't seem to find this directory which Canopy says it holds configuration/preferences directory. Anybody knows where it might be embedded?
It is ~/.canopy

I have the 4.0.3 Octave version on my machine.
and I would like to upgrade my version using windows.
Can someone tell me please the steps to follow?
Thanks.
If you want to remove v4.0.3, the complete answer will depend on how you installed that version in the first place.
If you used an executable installer, then there should be an 'uninstall' option available. On Windows 10, you can sometimes right click on the shortcut in the startmenu and an Uninstall option will appear. Otherwise you can follow the directions at this link to navigate through the Settings to the Apps & Features window, which lists everything installed and will provide an Uninstall option.
If you used a zip package to 'install' Octave 4.0.3 just by unzipping it to a folder on your hard drive, then no uninstall process is necessary. you can just delete the folder and shortcuts manually.
You can have multiple octave versions installed next to each other, the folders will have version numbers to prevent them from overwriting themselves.
To install the latest version (5.1.0 as of this answer, although 5.2.0 will be released very soon):
You can find the installation files for Windows by going to the Octave download page and clicking 'Windows'. There will be several file options there. Most people choose the first one (octave-5.1.0-w64-installer.exe) for 64bit systems. You can just download that or one of the other .exe versions, execute that program, and follow the prompts. If for some reason you would rather download a zip package and do a manual setup, I suggest you follow the instructions at the Octave for Microsoft Windows Wiki page to make sure everything is configured correctly.
I would like to install MUMPS database in Windows 8.1. I was trying to install but there is no exe file for MUMPS database. Can anyone give me a hand?. I downloaded a lot of files from this site https://sourceforge.net/projects/mumps/files/ but still don't know where to start.
From the README for that project, you'll need to install Cygwin:
NOTES on cygwin
For Windows, install the Cygwin environment at http://cygwin.com/install.html
Run cygwin terminal (on win7 or win8 run it as administrator).
Setup the Cygserver using /usr/bin/cygserver-config.
edit /usr/include/cygwin/shm.h
add near end
#define SHM_R (IPC_R)
#define SHM_W (IPC_W)
edit /usr/include/cygwin/ipc.h
move third last #endif 3 lines up
Once you have Cygwin setup, the mumps.exe file available to download at the link you provide should run.
That said, I would agree with Evgeny in recommending you try the free evaluation version of InterSystems Caché. It is a far more accessible Mumps implementation for Windows and it has an extensive set of libraries for common functionality.
The Canopy Package manager tells me there is an update available from Canopy v1.2.0.1610 to 1.3.0.1715 (64 bit running on a Mac with Mavericks). When I chose "install and relaunch" canopy closes but does not install the update or relaunch. When I relaunch manually I'm still at version 1.2.0. I also tried "install on quit," which didn't work either.
Suggestions?
Thanks for using Canopy and sorry for the trouble. Please report the issue through canopy so that we can have access to the log files and try to identify the origin of the issue. If trying again doesn't help, I would recommend you download Canopy again since our website will give you 1.3 installers.
HTH,
I downloaded the zip file for Mysql 5.0.29, but there is no .exe file in the folder. No idea how to install it in Windows.
All the instructions online are saying to click a .exe file to start installation.
Can anyone help me a bit? Many thanks!

I hadn't installed mysql server on windows in a few years.. I remember that years ago you used to get an installer called setup.exe, when you ran that it ran instal/config wizard, that would walk you thru installation and setup.. so how do I run that wizard now???
no file with ext .exe inside this dir (no file with ext .msi either) no serious instructions here

There is a package available with a MSI installer.
Just follow the instructions on http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/
You should use msi installer. It's on download page first or second option.
