Install previous versions if the current is not compatible with OS

Hi guys,

Is there a way how to download previous versions that were compatible up to current version of the windows? The problem is that I'm not able to upgrade my OS until my company decides to. I'm running Windows 10 - 1607.14393 Anniversary Update 64-bit version. I thought that buying the license would allow me to at least install previous versions of the XD. Now it says only not compatible.

If this feature was present it would be perfect.

I was searching for older installation files and could not find anything. Due to the newest version of XD I'm not able to install anything as my OS does not meet requirement. If I was able to just download the latest compatible with the current version of OS Im running it would be just fine. But Creative Cloud does not allow it although I bought the product.

Hey there,

Unfortunately, we're developing for UWP only, which isn't backward compatible with other Windows operating systems. We have a little more information about this here: Adobe XD Windows Update | Creative Cloud blog by Adobe

Hopefully, you'll be able to encourage your IT department to consider upgrading.

That kind of sucks that it is not possible to do even though it has been purchased. I dont understand why not.

Thank you for your information ankushr
