Hi all,
I need to get Libre data onto an XP PC.

The current version of Abbott Libre Desktop Software won't run on XP, however the earlier versions up to mid 2017 would.

Does anyone have/or know where I can get the earlier version?
Or have an alternative way to get the data with XP.
I've tried SIDiary but it wants the Abbott Software installed first.

I want to get the 15 minute data, as well as the scans and finger tests, to put into excel

Thanks for any suggestions.

Don't know if this will help but I run Win98 and copy my reader readings onto the PC with Libreview. The reader I use has the latest reader version but doesn't record blood tests.

Very interested! But I'ma bit confused, I decided I couldn't use this -- but I don't know why?

Abbott says you you need a recent browser and have to install a driver that requires mega RAM???

What was involved to install onto Win98?
What browser are you using?
etc.

What format is the 15-minute data you download? text, csv etc

I'm running Windows 7 and still have the 2016 Libre installer on my PC - though I'm not sure whether this would still install older software versions? I'd be happy to send it to you if you want to give it a try.
