How to downgrade plex for windows desktop app

Plex Players Desktop Players
1

Server Version#: 1.14.1.5488
Player Version#: 1.8.0.1159-67c4a549

Client auto updated and now can’t work due to:

Update your Plex Media Server
The server ------- is out of date and cannot be used. This version of Plex for Windows requires Plex Media Server 1.15.2 or higher.

Unfortunately I am unable to upgrade the server because it is Ubuntu 14.04 and that version is the latest that works on 14.04. I also can’t upgrade Ubuntu because it’s a custom 14.04 with ZFS on Linux that will surely break if I dist-upgrade.

Therefore I would like to download and reinstall the previous version - where can I find it?

Thanks,
PG

I had to install a previous version as well. Here is the link I used to grab a previous version (1.6.5.1097) of Plex for Windows:
