MedCalc installation on a Mac

You can install and use MedCalc on a Mac using CrossOver®.

CrossOver is a compatibility layer developed by CodeWeavers that allows you to run Windows software and games directly on macOS, Linux, and ChromeOS systems. It uses the open-source Wine technology to translate Windows commands into native system calls, eliminating the need for a Windows license or virtual machine.

1. How to Install CrossOver Mac

To install CrossOver on your Mac, visit the CrossOver website for instructions.

2. How to install MedCalc

Firstly you download the MedCalc (64-bit) installer from our download page, or use the following direct link: medcalcsetup64.msi.

Use the Chrome browser for a reliable download experience.

To install MedCalc, visit Installing an Unlisted Application in CrossOver Mac.

You can also watch the tutorial on YouTube.

Once the installation is complete, CrossOver displays the contents of the new "bottle". A "bottle" is CrossOver terminology for a self-contained virtual Windows environment.

Double-click the MedCalc icon to run the program.

You can also launch MedCalc directly from your Mac’s Launchpad.

Using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl Shift E you can quickly switch to the English user interface (in case Asian text is not displayed correctly).
