I've donated one or two years ago, cant remember the exact time, after I bought another laptop, I couldnt find the donated version download link, can anyone tell me how to find the donate version?
Perhaps one of the maintainers can offer better options:
I know of only two ways to get to the download location for your approved donation edition software.
1. Using the email link that you received when you registered your donation. Many people no longer have this after a period of time and I don't think there is a way to log in or provide any credentials to the server to get to the donation area. I always suggest people copy the download link for the donation addition to their password manager or some other safe place that they will have permanently. Having the download link in your email from years ago is tough to keep track of.
2. If you have a current computer that has the donation edition installed and running You can access the download area from inside the software program. simply run the software and go to the Help/About Menu option. In the lower left corner there should be a message thanking you for donating. Clicking anywhere in that box should open your default browser to the download page.

Check your browsers history.
In my case, in the URL bar, I simply type: 'freefile thank-you', & that is sufficient (in my case) to bring up the needed URL. (If I had to find the actual email... no telling ;-).)
