Arm provides official updates for licensed users only. Here is the exact path:
Direct identification:
| Step | Action |
|------|--------|
| 1 | Do not click any “Download Now” buttons from non-Arm domains. |
| 2 | Log into Keil (free registration suffices for evaluation). |
| 3 | Download MDK 5.30 or 5.31 (~900 MB). |
| 4 | Install, selecting “Arm Compiler 5.06 update 7”. |
| 5 | Copy the ARMCC folder for standalone use. |
| 6 | Verify with armcc --version → build 960. |
| 7 | Apply the “hot” fix to your project’s build script. |
Yes, but update your license server to FlexNet 11.10 or later. Contact Arm support for a server-side patch.
