any one have a link to download the 1st release of DXO PL 8.0? I submitted a request via support line 2 days ago, still didn’t get a respond
Support might take some time to get you a speciality link, if they do it at all.
As you seem to work with macOS, my advice is to check your Time Machine Backups for an installer or PhotoLab 8 app from September. For future use, I’d advise to save the installers or do something like this:
I keep several versions of PhotoLab
- Current version of the app, a duplicate and a copy per previous version(s)
- I add full version numbers, as found in the “about” menu of the opened app
- I update the current version of the app, duplicate it and add the version number
- The number of previous app versions depends on how much drive space I want to use. If the Time Machine backup drive is large enough, the number of copies is low.
This scheme helps to fall back with minimal effort. One thing to consider: in most cases, the PhotoLab database structure doesn’t change between updates and no further actions are required. Just quit DPL and start the fallback copy. If you want to stay with it, delete the newer copies and rename the app to make it look like the daily use copy.
