We occasionally post patch files that allow licensed RATS users to download updates to more recent versions at no charge.
See below for a list of the updates that are available as free downloads, and for instructions on downloading and installing the updates:
Users with Version 7.0 of WinRATS or WinRATS Pro can download a free patch file update to Version 7.1.
For details on the changes that were introduced in version 7.1, see RATS Revision History.
See RATS 7.3 for details on the current release. See Update Prices and Update Subscriptions for information on purchasing updates or update subscriptions.
You will need your RATS serial number in order to download the patch file. You can check the serial number by doing Help-About RATS. If you don't see the serial number there, you should find it printed on the label on your RATS CD envelope. Note that the patch file only updates the executable file—it does not provide updated PDF documentation files or new and revised examples and procedures. Those files were only included in the RATS 7.1 CDs.
When you are ready to proceed, click on RATS 7.1 Patch File Download.
Version 7.0 was a major upgrade, including full revised documentation and dozens of new features. It is not available as a free update from Version 6.
Version 6.35 was a fairly significant upgrade, and thus free patch files were not available.
Users with Version 6.2 of WinRATS and WinRATS Pro can download a free patch file update to Version 6.3.
You will need your RATS serial number in order to download the patch file. You can check the serial number by doing Help-About RATS. If you don't see the serial number there, you should find it printed on the label on your RATS CD envelope.
