Question

How do I install an older version if I do not already have it?

I had premiere pro on my computer previously, worked fine with no problems. Recently my computer was wiped, and none of my apps were still there. Illustrator installed fine, but premiere says I'm not compatible. I am fine with the older version, so is it possible to install the older version? All tutorials require me to already have the current version, because I need the "other versions" option.

Yes, @RjL190365 is the go-to guy for these kind of questions.

Contact adobe, because v23 was just available recently. Perhaps they can help you with that.

Here's the system requirements

https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/system-requirements.html

At the top of the page look for this:

Click the word "Here" to go back a version, and again, and again. It looks like you can use 23.x (as both 24.x and beyond need avx2).

Contact Adobe https://www.adobe.com/about-adobe/contact.html

Be logged into your user account and see if you can get a direct download for 23.x, I think there is a possibilty they will help you with that.

You can download the free CPU-Z which will give you the specs of your processor:

Well, it sounds like you need a hardwawre update. I found mixed messaging on that processor, as it reference newer and older versions.

Google AI Says:

Yes, modern Intel Pentium Silver processors typically support AVX2. Specifically, those based on the Tiger Lake architecture (and newer) and Elkheart Lake (Tremont) architecture offer AVX2 support. However, older Pentium Silver processors, particularly those based on older architectures like Kaby Lake and Skylake, may not.

You can still install 24.o not older than that.

In the Creative Cloud Desktop app, be sure to turn on Older Versions

in the Preferences/App tab

 

Then you'll click the ellipsis on the Premiere Pro option from the Apps page

It's still saying the same thing. The "more options" isn't appearing, even though I turned on that setting.

Hi roan_1093,

 

Sorry to hear about this. Could you please confirm the system specs (exact OS version, CPU, GPU & RAM)? It will help us troubleshoot the issue properly.

 

Thanks,

Sumeet
