Latest Lightroom 5 download, where can I get it?

[Gerald15A8]

I have a valid license for  Lightroom 5. I believe the latest version is 5.7. 

I had to wipe a machine clean, so I reinstalled the version on the CD (5.2).

Where can I find the latest version of Lightroom 5.

Premier, and Photoshop elements from the same era installed and updated fine.

What OS?

hmm, probably not MACOS Catalina as:

, so I reinstalled the version on the CD (5.2)

To the best of my knowledge their is no Adobe source for v5. A site might exist for v6.14, but that will not allow fir an upgrade from v5 as Adobe no longer sells a license.

Maybe another member has a non Adobe link???

Lightroom 5.7.1 can be downloaded from the instructions here:

https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/downloaded-older-app.html

or

if you search the forum, you will find recent (last 2 months or so) links to download

May I also suggest that you save the download file for possible future re-installations, and make backups of it on a different disk or in the cloud, as well.

I did not purchase from Adobe, so those instructions do not apply. 

I bought a shrink-wrapped box with CD from Amazon.

If you registered the software with Adobe, then those instructions do apply.

Adobe have removed that link:

This is the link Adobe gave me today: http://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/legacy/lightroom/win/5.x/Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_7_1.exe

Thanks so much. I did alot of googling, and going in circles on the Adobe site. This is the best communitity forum I have experianced. I probably should have poked around here more before posting.

It has actually made me recondider dumping Adobe.

I'm still not thrilled about the subscription model, becasue I am a very light user since children have grown. I would condider purchasing an upgrade to my products, and using them for a few years, but that is not posssible now.

The Lightroom Photography plan is actually a bargin with a daily cost of $0.32. You get Lightroom Classic, Desktop, and Mobile apps with many new features, 20 GB of Cloud storage, and the full version of Photoshop. Just something to consider. Enjoy!
