need a license key for VMware vSphere 6.7 Hypervisor

[Si333]

Hello,

I was unsuccessful finding a license key for my VMware vSphere 6.7 Hypervisor. When I try to download the 6.7 version from the website, I'm always given the only choice to download and register v.7.0. 

I need a license key for v.6.7 Hyervisor (Not the trial version but the one with limited functions, yet FREE license. Can you help?

The link redirects to 7.x version

Given that 6.x is no longer supported, it makes sense for VMware to only offer 7.0 and 8.0.

Some of us need to run 6 because of old hardware. In my case my GRID K1 only has drivers for 6.5 and breaks on 7. I came here looking for a 6.5 key as well and everything on the website forwards you to 7 or 8.

I also need keys and a download for vSphere 6.7. As described, download page redirects to 7.

This kind of shenanigans by developers, removing access to older and unsupported software versions, is anathema. We're not asking for support, we just want to use our older hardware that is unsupported by newer software versions. Being that VMware is not a hardware company, why do the work of hardware companies for them without any benefit to VMware? 

Give us the keys and the software, please.
