Unable to download compilers

The download page is now redirected to https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/developer/tools/overview.html, but is unable to download.

I found this to be correct, but along the way, I found out that if you go to control panel and look at programs, there are minor releases for the latest 2052.2 Fortran in the base kit and the HPC kit, I am now updating.  It appears to be the C++ compiler?

Never seen updates under settings / programs. Could you explain with a screen shot maybe showing what you are looking at?

[JohnNichols]

If you open control panel

then open programs you see this set of installed files

select the intel oneapi base kit and then it asks if you want to change it - pick that option

if there are updates as there were this morning, a green update button will appear under modify.  

I watch this about once a week so I catch Intel when they have uploaded the updates, but tell no-one till they have tested it.  

Stretching back to Mary Taylor at Intel, I just like catching them before the announcement.  

This is a minor release 2025.2.1 instead of the 2025.2  - which should have a .0 for the older version.

There is no announcement of the minor revision.  YET.  I have no way of knowing how long it has been around as I have been in Europe.  

If you use this method it keeps all previous versions so we have ifort. 

Notice the multiple base kits.

I see, in this instance the vendor (Intel) installer  invoked by "modify" has an online check component. I did not know that. Do you get the option for a full offline instal package if you click that?

[JohnNichols]

No, you cannot download the updater, but I have the last IFORT stored away so when I  have to install oneAPI from scratch I just do the last IFORT and then update, it is much quicker.  

But I pretty well use IFX as most of my code is vanilla.
