I have a Crosley turntable with USB connection cord. My computer has Windows 7 OS. I saved Audacity via the CD provided - it is version 2.0. tried to update to the 2.03 latest version since I am having trouble hearing music on my computer being recorded from the turntable. I get the message: “could not download”. What might be the problem and do I really need to upgrade? Thanks for your assistance!
Upgrading is recommended,

I’ve just tested the link and it’s working OK, so if you still cannot download it, then it may be a security setting on your computer that is preventing the download.
