Access to Matlab 2018a version?

Hey guys, I'm trying to run code that someone else wrote on the 2018a version of Matlab. It won't run on the 2022 version on my PC. Does anyone know of a safe website to download the 2018a version of Matlab? I'm hoping this will solve the problem. Thanks.

It won't run on the 2022 version on my PC.

Is that because your installation of release R2022a doesn't have the products the code uses (but you expect if you did it would work)?

Is that because the code uses functionality that has been removed or changed between release R2018a and R2022a?

Or is there some other reason?

I downloaded the relevant products in the 2022a version but it was still reporting an error. I'm not that familiar with the differences between the various versions of Matlab, so I don't know if the code uses functionality that has been removed or changed between release R2018a and R2022a.

I have downloaded the 2018a version and my code is now running. Thank you for the response @Steven Lord.

If your license permits you to download previous versions, then

https://www.mathworks.com/downloads/

and on the left side you might need to click "more" and then "R2018a"

I do not know about Student versions; regular MATLAB licenses entitle you to use any previous release as well.

Thank you @Walter Roberson! I didnt realise they were available on the official Matlab website.
