How do I recover a previous installation of OrCAD

RWBurroughs
I have a license for OrCAD 17.4 and recently had to reset my laptop, and in the process lost my installation. I had purchased my copy through EMA-EDA, and when I contacted them, they said that my maintenance agreement has expired. The only option they gave me was to purchase a new maintenance agreement for $850/year, which I can't afford. Is there any other way I could recover it? Is there any way to reinstall it from the old installation footprint? Thanks for any help that could be offered.

    The only option you have is if you used Download Manager to install the software the installers would still be in the local cache folder. Look in C:\Users\yourusername\AppData\Roaming\Cadence\DownloadManager\LocalCache and see if you have the installers there. If not you could also try rhe Downloads location on your PC.
