Fenix 7X 17.28 stable firmware download link?

Where can I find a link and download a file to rollback to version 17.28?
There are no more links to files in this article. I do not want to continue using 18.16. Battery drains twice as fast, broke the battery widget and that's a small part of what I could find in less than a week. And reading. this forum, I realize that this is not going to be fixed. I want to use the watch on version 17.28 and then buy another brand, it looks like this one will not be good anymore.

Why hope? Contact Garmin Support and ask them to investigate.

I had to install version 18.16 again. After I installed version 17.28 from the file, the backup could not be fully restored and a lot of data was incompatible with the earlier version. DSW is critical for me and it was completely reset after rolling back the version.
Now we can only wait and hope that Garmin will fix what they broke.

All the problems I got when upgrading have already been described many times on the forum. A few months ago they were described in the beta thread of the forum, but they were not solved and sent as a major update to everyone. Now they have been described again in this thread and dozens of people have confirmed these problems. And most likely there will be no fixes in version 18, they are already doing version 19. But in version 19 they will bring new problems without fixing the old ones. Most likely they want to increase sales of the eighth model by making the seventh model bad.

For the Fenix models, I found them here on the bottom of this post: It is part of the download for 18.10.. 17.28 is in the same zip file. Enduro might be in there too.
