Versiondownload

A brand-new site which attempts to answer any need you might have to roll back from recent software upgrades and install older versions. Sometimes every time a piece of software is updated, your computer seems to run worse than before, or the application is even more bloated than it was, or it invents new ways of running in the background and slowing everything else down. Most of us have been there, you know what I mean. Version Download plans to store older versions of a problematic or increasingly irritating application, so that you can uninstall the latest behaves-like-a-beta and find a version that actually works. They already have a range of apps, in most cases with multiple earlier versions to try out. No doubt the range will grow. It's a new idea, and feels like it might be a good one. I think it's going to have to develop some sort of a guide to help you decide which recently installed or upgraded app. Is causing issues, or else you could find yourself downgrading something that would be a lot more useful left where it is. But if you work from the general premise that "less is more" when it comes to those ever-increasing but largely unnecessary functions in applications, this is going to be a site you bookmark and use often.
