Question

My PC won't run After Effects due to the processor generation I wanted to download version 23.x. how i can ?

My PC has a 3rd-gen i5 processor; I can't run After Effects versions newer than 24.x, so I'd like to download an older version... I have 16GB of RAM and my graphics card has 4GB of VRAM.

    Hi, CORCTON's method is correct in general, but AE 23.x has been retired and no longer appears in Creative Cloud's "Other versions" list. Only 25.x and 26.x are currently installable.

    I'd suggest upgrading your computer. Refer to the system requirements page shared by the ToolfarmJP.

    Sorry it isn't better news. Let me know if there are any other questions.


    Thanks,
    Nishu

    Hi! You can install an older version through the Creative Cloud desktop app: open the app, go to Apps > All apps, click the ⋯ (more actions) button next to After Effects, choose "Other versions", then select 23.x and install.

     

    Just note that only the versions Adobe still makes available will appear in that list.
