How do I install an older version of Musescore 2?
It closes the wizard because I already have 2.1. Is there a way to get past this?

Uninstall 2.1 first. Or use a portable app
It would be interesting to know why you want to install an older version.

I want to install all of the previous major versions (that is, 2.0.3 and 2.0.0) because with every update the audio generation changes a little, just enough so that the pieces made in previous versions don't sound as they should. I regret not exporting them while I still could.

Best use the portable apps for this.

These are 'installations' that don't require any installation, so you can put them on a USB thumb drive (but of course also onto any disk) and start on every (Windows) Computer without any need to install them there.

If it bothers you that much it should be possible to install the SoundFont from previous versions so you can get the old-style playback in the latest version. You can even use this trick to get the old-style playback on MuseScore.com.

One or two of the issues in 2.1 are with the synth engines, though, so installing old soundfonts won't help.
