+== Older versions from repo snapshots ==
+
+Each time the repository is updated the previous version of the setup.ini is kept.  Old packages files are usually not removed from the repo (unless it necessary to, to make room for new one).  The snapshots reside at https://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/v2/snapshots.  To get an older version find the date of the package you want (eg. qgis-ltr-3.22.9-1.tar.bz2 from 2022-Jul-15 14:49 in http://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/v2/x86_64/release/qgis/qgis-ltr/) and then pick a https://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/v2/snapshots/ from shortly after that date, eg. https://download.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/v2/snapshots/20220715-190611/. Add that URL as `User URL` on the "Choose a download Site" page (or via the command line option `--site`).  Picking `qgis-ltr` will then get you 3.22.9 instead of the latest version.  I'd recommend to do this in a separate installation as in existing installations versions of dependencies probably won't be properly downgraded and will likely break.
