Use case

A customer is unsure whether they downloaded the latest version, an older version, or the right file variant.

Writing rule

Do not request unrelated private files or remote access. Do not promise future updates or old-version recovery unless published. Explain current version notes and support path.

Compliance note

This is a self-serve copy resource, not a file repair service, custom setup offer, archive rebuild, checkout, waitlist, or paid support CTA.

Draft copy

Hi [name], Thanks for the note about file version question. The best first step is to compare what you see with the product page, README, file map, or package notes included with the digital product. If support needs to locate an order, please send only your order number or purchase email. Please do not send passwords, one-time codes, full card numbers, account access, unrelated private files, API keys, mailbox access, or remote access. This message does not promise replacement files, archive repair, file recovery, custom sorting, old-version access, future updates, or manual setup unless published. Thanks, [store name]

Customize safely

Replace the issue with the exact package question, then link to the public README, support page, or product notes.

Useful support route

Link to Delivery & Support, product preview, product status, Terms, Refund Policy, or Acceptable Use.

Do not overclaim

Do not promise replacement files, bonus access, file repair, archive rebuilding, old versions, future updates, or one-on-one walkthroughs.
