How to download Adobe Illustrator for free on Windows PC

Adobe Illustrator can be downloaded and installed very simply on a computer with the Microsoft operating system taking care to meet certain requirements. Obviously, in order to take advantage of the free trial of the software you must not have used it first with the same Adobe ID. The rule is also valid for macOS.

Requirements

  • Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64 processor.
  • Windows 7 operating system with Service Pack 1, 8.1 and 10.
  • 1 GB of RAM for the 32-bit version (3 GB recommended) or 8 GB of RAM for the 64-bit version (8 GB recommended).
  • 2 GB of free disk space.
  • Screen resolution of 1024 × 768 pixels (1280 × 800 pixels recommended).

To download the trial version of Illustrator on your Windows PC, simply connect to the official website of the program, click on the free trial version that you find at the top and wait for the download of the executable file.

Once the download is complete, open the Adobe Illustrator installation file and follow the wizard that will also ask you to create an Adobe account (entering the various required information such as name, last name, date of birth, e-mail address and password ) or login with a profile already in your possession by pressing on Login. At the end, you can start the free trial (valid for 7 days) by clicking on Start free trial version.
