Where to find old (archaic) Sigma Plot 2.0 installation discs?

My husband likes, and uses extensively, the old Sigma Plot 2.0 software. Where to find installation discs?

He bought a new(er) laptop and needs to reinstall Sigma Plot on it to chart the data from scientific studies. He prefers this software, which meets all his needs, to the newer, more complicated Sigma Plot software which is readily available. Somehow he lost the installation discs.

Any and all answers welcome, and many thanks!

The install file might exist in the installer storage windows used to repair installs.

A search of the windows folder for files named sigma might reveal the msi file.

Alternately, old enough software might be able to just copy over the installer, and try and register any / all dynamic link libraries manually. This is an advanced option.


From a command prompt, the command “regsrv32 file_name.dll” for any error dialog that pops up when you start the application telling you that library does not exist.
