is there somewhere that I can download a copy of version 8 pro . I blew up my workstation and I need this version . I've bought every version till now since version 5 , and v8 is the only later version that works properly and doesn't immediately crash when I need it to do what I need it to do .

Somebody cleaned the download archives, but you can download shark 8 by Posh.de.

Thanks I appreciate that , unfortunately I didn't buy shark so I've got no key unless I go bootleg . I contacted support and it looks like I'm sol . It would appear that in such a large company there is not a single digital copy available .

I asked the same for Version 7 Pro. Seemingly doesn't exist nor a way to license it.....

TurboCAD experience suggests the new owners have settled on five years as legacy support window. Win 10 isn't backwards compatible with everything, and MS is apparently going to cut Win 7 adrift next year, V8 dates back to 2012-2013. Mac people agitate with each new OS increment too.

I am in the same boat - need to re-install ViaCAD Pro v8 and can't find my CD. Would you be willing to provide me with a copy of the download as well?
