i need to install AE 17.1.4 on a Mojave mac

[greggedits]

Greeting all.  I had a crash that required a reinstall on my Mojave Mac.  I was using AE 17.1.4 and have been for a while.  I cannot upgrade the Mac because I have other apps that won't go past Mojave.  I just want my previous version back...but it is no longer available to download.  Adobe help suggested I go look elsewhere on the web (stolen versions I assume!).  Any help?

Let's see... After Effects 17 was 2020.  As far as I am aware, the last version to have stand-alone installers that could be downloaded was After Effects 16 CC2019.  

ProDesignTools maintians links to stand-alone instalers (scroll down to "Direct Download Links" at the right) and 2020 is listed, but only the 2019 and older versions have actual download links.

If you're able to get CC2019 running (it should activate with a current subcription), I could save your project down a version for you if you are able to share it (no need to share any linked files).

I forgot.  After Effects 2020 projects open in 2019, 2021, and 2022 without needing to be saved down a version.  You should be able to work with the After Effects CC2019 direct download available ProDesign Tools.
