Trouble downloading Archicad 25

Hello. So, I just recently purchased and downloaded a license with Archicad 26. But I have a few projects in Archicad 25 (unfortunately I just deleted it) and when I open those in 26, the whole file is a mess with materials and windows and basically everything missing. I wanted to download Archicad 25 again to open the file, but I cannot find the downloader in the Graphisoft page. Perhaps someone could tell me where to download, or a solution for the missing things (that doesn't involve basically redrawing everything).

Nothing should be missing if you open a 25 file in 26.

Just open the file and migrate the libraries to 26.

The only reason you would have anything missing is if you have used different language versions for 25 & 26 in which case the libraries may not be compatible which is why things are missing.

But if you have used the same language version, everything should be fine.

 

To download 25, just use this link and change the URL to the language version that you want.
