Is there anyway to use older versions of Hitfilm Express`?
I recently downloaded the current version of hitfilm, but each time I try to open it the program crashes. It has left me in a perpetual loop of logging in over and over in hopes of it working. I did some digging and I think my current specs might be below the current hitfilm software that is out. I've seen suggestions of going to older versions of hitfilm & that might solve the issue I'm dealing with. However upon downloading an older version that DOES open up, I found that I can't unlock it. I need a liscense to do so but they stopped giving out liscenes in June 2022. So what am I supposed to do? This software seems esy to use but it's frustrating I can't seem to use older versions with my account.
So am I missing something? Or is there actually a way that I can access old versions (that i can unlock)?? Please help me.

Unfortunately, if you do not have a license for the older versions of HitFilm, you will not have access to them. This will be painful at first since everyone will need a computer less than about 5 years old to access HitFilm under the new license. Over time though, this should improve greatly as there will be many versions under the new license.
You’re in luck though! Your computer does meet HitFilm’s minimum spec, it probably just needs to be updated! Make sure you upgrade to the latest version of Windows 10 (or 11) and then you will need to update your graphics driver from this page:
Once that’s done, HitFilm should work properly!
