Q: I purchased a Pro license of the software, but can’t see where to download the Pro version from

A: There’s always just one installer per operation system for each product. It’s the activation code for the license that makes the difference, only the activation code you receive after the checkout unlocks the functionality for each specific type of license. So there’s one installer for all licenses.
