Where is the Lightroom 5 Updates?!?!?!

Seriously, I can't find the update anywhere on this convoluted site and I have been looking for over a half hour!  The update site only goes up to version 3.6 and when I finally found what I thought was a 5.7 update it ended up being what I think is an installer for something else (Lightroom_5_CCM_LS11.dgm)? I know that its unsupported now but I have version 5.6 and I should still be able to update to version 5.7!

Please help or send me a link?!?!!?

    Hi folks,

    just had a rather lengthy but in the end helpful chat with the Adobe support.

    The up-to-date dowload link for the LR 5.7.1 installation file for Windows 64bit is

    http://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/legacy/lightroom/win/5.x/Lightroom_5_LS11_win_5_7_1.exe

    (I just assume it's okay to share it with the world, as the kind people of Adobe gave it away without asking anything in return - and after all posting it here means less work for them in future...) 

    So anyways, hope this spares some of you some time.

    Cheers!

    If any of the previous links previously worked they have now broken them.

    I too am wanting to download an update to Lightroom 5 without having CC shoved down my throat.  Does anyone have a permanent link to an LR5 update?

    Download Photoshop Lightroom

    The above link still works for me.

    Click on > Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5 and the download links will be revealed.

    I tried this link and it installed, asked me to also install creative cloud, asked for a serial number (didn't recognize my existing serial), then refused to open Lightroom.

    Maybe I'm asking the wrong question?  How do I download an update to LR5 which does not require CC, accepts my Serial Number and just works?

    Hi DdeGannes,  Thank you for the reply, however I had tried that link before and it keeps sending me here: Download a free trial or buy Adobe products | Adobe downloads

    I have a feeling that the link is broken!?! which is why its so frustrating.  I hope Adobe can fix the link.

    Thanks

    Mike

    Yes, those links are broken (for 5.7.1 and 4.4 only). I have reported them to Adobe to be fixed.

    I don't know of any links to 5.7.1 at the moment.
