Upgrade to PhotoRaw 2023.1
I am looking for the link to the download for the update to PhotoRaw 2023.1.
Supposedly this was released mid-February 2023.
This is advertised as free for existing users of PhotoRaw 2023, which I am.
But for the life of me, I cannot find a link to the actual download. I see options to Trial or Buy. But that is not the same as an upgrade!

One option is to open your current version and select 'Check for updates' in the Help menu.
Do download manually, typically you would sign in to your ON1 account and download it from there. The version shown there will always be the latest that you're entitled to.
Optionally, you can get it from this link.

Also, FWIW, you can download the "Trial" version and install it. It will always be the latest version and the only thing that makes it a trial version is no signing in. Once you've signed in everything is exactly the same.

Thanks for your suggestions.
Rick Sammartino: I cannot see any "Check for updates" nor can I see the Help menu. I have looked both on my account page and on the support page:
https://on1help.zendesk.com/hc/en-us
Brian Lawson: I am not sure I understand. Do you mean that by downloading the "Trial" version, it will automatically (after signing in) convert into the full version?

Nicolas

Yes, I it doesn’t matter if you download the trial version or from your account you download the exact same installer from the exact same location at the ON1 site.

Brian the strange thing is that I cannot see any link to downloading the 2023.1 version on my account. And I have looked everywhere I can imagine ....
This is my account page.
Products: the products I already have with no links to a newer version of Photo Raw. I can simply download the same version.
Dashboard: links to video
Subscriptions: I have none
Orders: none
Notifications: none
So where is the famous "Check for updates"?
I will try downloading the trial version. Except I now see they are advertising version 2023.5!
Is this still free to upgrade?

The Check for Updates command is under the program’s Help menu.

Nicolas, you're not reading our posts properly.
I've already stated that the version in your Account will always be the LATEST version.
I also posted a link that takes you DIRECTLY to a download page, but apparently you never looked at it.
lastly, Checking for Updates is the easiest thing to find if you just look for it. I already said it was in the HELP menu.

Also, the reference you saw to 2023.5 on the Trials page is somewhat misleading. 2023.5 is not available yet, there is a banner on another page on their website saying it will be available in late May.

Rick: I have already followed and downloaded the file that appears when I follow that link.
But the key point is this new download has the SAME file version 3.1.2.0 as the original Photo Raw download. Additionally it has the same file name "ON1_Photo_RAW_2023.exe"
Normally each new software issued by a developer will have a new file version. Hence why they advertise Photo Raw 2023.1
But the file name & version have remained the same.

ON1 just at work that way. Anna caller always be 2023 regardless of the point version behind it. Why don’t you post ask a screenshot of the splash screen. It appears when you wash the program after you run that installer.

It's not the same, the version on the download page clearly says 'Current Version (17.1.1.13620)' and not "version 3.1.2.0"
If you're not aware, you can see the installed version by selecting 'about'...
... which gives you this...

Rick, the version that appeared when I followed the Check updates sent me this page. From that page I downloaded what appeared as the latest file.
If you click on the download link WIN Photo Raw 2023, it opens this link:
https://ononesoft.cachefly.net/photoraw2023/win/gm_13620/ON1_Photo_RAW_2023.exe
After downloading this link, I checked the version. And it indicates File Version 3.1.2.0
Sorry Rick I am not inventing these questions. This is not clear.

This is from the properties of the latest version of Photo Raw 2023. The one I downloaded a couple of days ago.

You are making this way too hard! Take a look at the file path for the link you provided above. You see where it says "gm_13620"? Notice how that matches the build number in the screenshot Rick showed above? They are identical. This tells you the program version you downloaded is the latest version as we've told you multiple times would happen.
The installer file name does not change from version to version. For 2023 they will all be named ON1_Photo_RAW_2023.exe regardless of the actual version.
Run the installer then run the program and look at the version number in the startup splash screen. You already have the correct, latest version. I promise!

What Brian said!.
I showed you exactly where to find the version number in the splash screen and yet you dig into properties. ALL of your questions were answered in my very first post. All of those links are correct and point to the newest version. Yet here we are 12 posts later???? Come on.
