Jason A Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 I bought an older version of VideoPad, and am constantly having to roll back to it due to auto-update issues that then tell me I need to pay for a newer version. Very annoying! The Support team told me to install an older version and sent me a link to a page that doesn't even have my older version. See here: http://www.oldversiondownload.com/oldversions/ I need 6.29, safe install, no additional ware or viruses. Can anyone help? Thanks.

borate Posted April 5, 2021 Share Posted April 5, 2021 There's a six-month grace period after purchase when updates are free. The 6.x series is very dated. Newer versions can always be test driven, unlicensed. 6.29 is available here. It's safe; ignore any virus warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason A Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 Many thanks for your reply Borate. I only need the version I purchased. The link you provided doesn't do anything. I click and nothing happens. Even copy and paste, the exe file does not download. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Odd. The link is good, and when clicked immediately brings up the SAVE box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason A Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 Many thanks for your help again! I've managed to download it, avoided any prompts to update, and it downloaded successfully, however it looked different to my version. I then put in the Registration Code for my version, and got the message: "Invalid Old Version Code: The code you are attempting to use is not valid for version 6.29 of VideoPad (it was for version 5.xx or previous versions)." This is once more annoying, as the email I received from the VideoPad team, who checked my account, told me to download 6.29. Do you have a similar link for version 5? Maybe that will work. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 See if this helps... https://www.nch.com.au/support/reg.html Most all versions are available here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason A Posted April 6, 2021 Author Share Posted April 6, 2021 Many thanks again Borate. Your second link provided a link to the version I purchased. I downloaded and installed, without clicking on any update options, and it still installed the latest version. I can't seem to get it to stop doing this. -0-0- Stop press! I just tried one final option before giving up. Instead of uninstalling the version I have and reinstalling, I just tried installing the old version on top of the new one... and it worked. Registration was successful. Thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borate Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Yes, when a release is downloaded, simply double-click on it to install. No need to uninstall the existing version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
