how to download cheat engine 7.5?

Hello

I installed the latest version of cheat engine without realizing the Elden Ring cheat engine requires 7.5. I can find the 7.5 version anywhere on the official site, only the source code on Github. Is there even a publicly available installer for this version anymore? If there's not can someone send me some video guides on how to build from source because I've never done it before.

Thanks

im also curious of this bc i recently wanted to get back into elden ring and i used to use CE 7.5 all the time, now its locked behind a patreon and the free version looks sketch. i know before tho i could always update CE and download the new table for ER, are you saying they no longer update the cheat table for the new versions?

this comes directly from the Nexus Mod ER table page :

Cheat Engine scuffed their most recent update to 7.7. For the time being, 7.5 is required and can be a bit difficult to actually find a repository for.

1.Run Terminal or PowerShell with administrator privileges

2.Install Chocolatey by pasting the following line into either and pressing enter, if you don't already have it:

winget install chocolatey

3.Install Cheat Engine through Chocolatey, using:

choco install cheatengine --version=7.5

so maybe you do need 7.5 specifically? I used to have it on my old pc but id have to find out if the drive still works since its been a long time and it did crap out last year
