How to download the engine after subscription expired?

This questions might have been asked by someone else already, but I could not find it.

So I have an active subscription at the moment. I have downloaded engine version 4.1. Suppose I cancel my subscription after this. Now I understand I can still use the engine and publsih games with an inactive subscription. But what do I do if I re-install my OS. Do I need to reactivate my subscription to download engine V4.1?

Or can I simply run the original .msi file and will the launcher install V4.1?

After your subscription ends, you can still download the launcher from the unrealengine.com account page. In the launcher, you will be able to continue to download the versions you had access to as a subscriber. However, your GitHub access to UE4 will end with your subscription, so if you need the source, be sure to download and archive the source from GitHub before your subscription lapses.

Thank you for the quick answer !!

God Sweeney PEACE NOBEL PRICE!!!

I was wondering, if you unsubscribe and you don’t have the github access, suppose you modify the engine… how the changes will be returned??? I was just wondering about that “case”.
