Old Versions of SmartSDR v3

edited May 2020 in SmartSDR for Windows
On the downloads page https://www.flexradio.com/downloads/, older versions of SmartSDR v3 are missing. I can only see versions 3.1.8 and 3.1.11; what happened to 3.1.7, 3.0.27, and 3.0.19?

    Could be, but all of the older version 1 and version 2 installer files are still posted.

    no software from anyone is dropped perfectly, if a update is added but not significant of a change then it waits for something else is added till enough of a change is done to make it worth dropping the update to the public, so 2.0 is available but something minor is written in but not to significant so its held and not dropped, then a few more things are added then it mat be dropped as 2.0.05. all software changes for anything is like this.

    We're in the process of evaluating our policy on how far back we keep older versions.  Right now, the versions you mention are hidden, not removed.  Part of the rationale for this is to avoid confusion some customers have when selecting a download.  If you have a need for one of these versions, please submit a helpdesk ticket.

    A good move I would say. Probably same reason as you cannot download old versions of Windows forever and you are encouraged to use the most recent.  Few people use Windows XP just because they can and it works. :-) Thanks Dan.
