Hello, I’ve updated MKVToolNix, but I would really like to go back to an older version from a few years ago. Where can I find that installation file? ---

Welcome! Assuming you’re using Windows, you can find all older releases [here](https://mkvtoolnix.download/windows/releases/). ---

I can’t find it here. There are only dates from 26-05-2026. I think I had version 0.90 or something similar, but there are no setup files in there. I had a version somewhat like this one, but slightly older. “Start Multiplexing” wasn’t on it yet back then. and after the name, the following was automatically added: (1) Is there somewhere I can see which version I had? When you clicked on ‘start merge’, no ‘play’ button appeared that would slide over to ‘execute task’, as shown circled in the image below. ![image](https://help.mkvtoolnix.download/uploads/default/original/1X/b874c9f10e22b1c1eaae2b34ce8328ba31871d37.png) ![image](https://help.mkvtoolnix.download/uploads/default/original/1X/6ab783db3defb5f63df3b8700dfc1674b0092282.png) ---

Ignore the dates of the files & folders; they were copied around quite a bit, and when that happens the timestamps reset. You definitely did not use 0.9 or anything close to that version. Back then the application was only distributed as a RAR archive. > [@Daniel1](#): > > Is there somewhere I can see which version I had?

This leads me to believe you mean the old GUI called “mkvmerge GUI”, also known as its abbreviation, “mmg”. That one was removed in v8.4.0. ---

Okay, I have 9.0.2 now. The 9.0.0 series is all fairly similar, but I don’t remember exactly which version I had before this. It wasn’t a mmg. it was permanently installed. ---

Do you know which version I need in order to have at least version 17? One that is as close as possible to 9.0.2? ![image](https://help.mkvtoolnix.download/uploads/default/original/1X/00c96e421b72a086a72e6c076c5d140c5dedfe24.png) ---

v17, obviously. Not sure what else you expect. ---

Oh, is that literally the MKVToolNix version? Sorry. ---

MKVToolNix-the-project & all the executables it contains always share the same version number for any given release. So yes, MKVToolNix v17.x.y contains exactly `mkvextract` v17.x.y.
