How to Get Your Earlier Version Licenses and Downloads

Named user licenses

• Each serial number that also requires an older version license must be registered to a unique Embarcadero Developer Network (EDN) account that is associated with the intended end user of the product.
• You must install and register your 12.2 serial number before you request the older version licenses.
• You must request your older version licenses within 180 days of your purchase of the 12.2 product.
• Your earlier version licenses will be tied to your user account and cannot be given away or sold. If your 12.2 license is an upgrade, you will not receive additional licenses for older versions that you already own.
