Hello joaopa,
thanks, but no need for that oldversion.fr link which redirects to a CDN for
downloads = might not be stable enough.
The Internet Archive has already snapshotted the original Google link:

What's happening to Picasa, Picasa Web Albums, and the Picasa Web Albums API?
Picasa is now retired. (If you speak English, you can read the blog post here.)

Did anyone bother to test if this works nowadays on Windows?
I wouldn't be surprised if that doesn't work either.
Then you are beating a dead horse here.

You should never rely on a Google-based platform for your application or
