    When you go to the Unity for HoloLens Technical Preview page you can click on the Archives tab and download several old releases of Unity itself. However you can *not* download the corresponding UWP Runtime for the older builds, and without it you cannot build HoloLens apps. Is there a reason Unity is offering older builds of Unity but not the UWP Runtime for them? Can this be fixed?

    Hello,

    Thank you for pointing that out, I will point that out to the Web Team. I can send you the UWP's you need, let me know what you need.

    Thank you,
    Wesley

    Thanks Wesley. I'm good for right now but it would have been super helpful to have these at the HoloLens hackathons we were running (and others that may happen going forward). Thank you for passing this along!

    I have the same question. I just want to download the UWP Runtime for the older builds, I log on to Unity for HoloLens Technical Preview but I can't find it. How can I get the UWP Runtime for Unity 5.4.0f3.

    Thank you.

    Hololens is in 5.5 unity builds, it has the latest features and fixes. I would recommend updating to that build

    I'll try finding the build for you - hold on there.
