Download AE 2024 in 2026

Is there a way to still obtain the AE 2024 in 2026?
The oldest version I can find when I click on the three dots is version 25.0. If I click on "see more," I just get redirected to the website where the 2024 version is also not listed.

Thanks

Really sorry for the trouble and I'll share your feedback internally.

If you’re having a specific issue with the versions available, let us know what’s happening and we’ll try to help.

Hi. I had adobe after effects 2024 installed, this is the version I have to use because 2025 and 2026 are just bug ridden and dont work for me, today out of nowhere it stopped opening, I tried to reinstall it via adobe creative cloud but after doing that now 24.x wont show on "other versions" I NEED that version to work on my client project, where can I down load it now, I'm in a tight deadline thanks

Hi, sorry you're in a tight spot. Unfortunately AE 2024 has been retired and is no longer available through Creative Cloud or any other official channel.

For your deadline, your best options are:

1. Try AE 25.x or 26.x versions. Install via Creative Cloud desktop app > three dots next to After Effects > Other versions.

If your projects won't open or behave badly in either, could you share:

- What specifically breaks (crashes, missing effects, rendering issues)?

- Your system specs.

We'll try our best to get you back to working.


Thanks,
Nishu

Unfortunately, only the latest and one major version behind the latest are available to download. Version 24 is not available for download any more.

Let me know if there are any other questions.

 

Thanks,

Nishu
