    <thetext>+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #507051 +++
Hi,
I&apos;m missing the portable windows download option for 8.8. (digiKam-8.8.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz)
This was the same issue when 8.7. was released and was fixed after I reported that issue =&gt; 507051 

Please provide such a version for the stable 8.8.0 release again and upload it to the download page.
Maybe you can find out why this download option is again missing.
Thanks a lot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go To https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/8.8.0/
2. file digiKam-8.8.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz is not there

EXPECTED RESULT
I would love to have a precompiled 8.8.0 windows version as in the past.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
(available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window)
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
KDE Plasma Version: 
KDE Frameworks Version: 
Qt Version: 

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Thanks. I saw that the portable version is available for the daily builds.
Any chance to get it for the official stable version as well?</thetext>

    <thetext>Right. This is the files list generated while 8.8.0 release have been processed by the scripts and uploaded. I must admit that i don&apos;t double check the contents:

I must investigate why we have a difference between daily builds and release builds...

Best regards

    <thetext>It seems that this is fixed with the new 9.0.0 release. There is a portable download option for windows again
https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/9.0.0/digiKam-9.0.0-Qt6-Win64.tar.xz
