![]() And now, a lot of titles whether you save your install files or not, the developers via online registration, will void your old install. My point is, the more we lay down for this, the more we get "laid down". Its a given its ultimately the end users responsibility to save all the install files in a standard backup. There are a lot of applications I've paid to license over the years that are no longer available for download.at least in the versions I licenced. We can be unhappy about it, but they do have that right to do so unless they put in the original licensing agreement that the software would be available perpetually for download. In the case of the OP, it appears that the developer has chosen not to offer the older application for whatever reason. That's their business decision, just as it's each of our business decisions on whether to upgrade and keep current applications we've paid to license initially. I'm just pointing out that it's common in the software industry and the prerogative of the software manufacturer as to whether or not they continue to allow downloads of old-old software perpetually, with or without support. I'm not debating whether or not the practice is a good thing, Mark.
