Catalina download link not working

Posting again. I'm new in the community and have no idea how to edit my old post lol.

I have and old MacBook Pro 2013 with Mojave that I need to update to Catalina. When trying to use the direct link to download Catalina the App Store doesn't open. Instead it opens a browser link with the description of the OS.


I tried the link from my 2021 MacBook Pro 14" with Big Sur and it worked in that Mac. Any idea how I can make the link work on my 2013 Mac with Mojave or another way to download Catalina?


Any help will be very much appreciate it :)


Thanks!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

 How to get old versions of macOS and verify what version this computer Qualifies to install.  For Best results use Safari to commence the download as Others may not work.


Safari will open a redirect and open the Apple Store where the download can commence.


Just tested and works for my machine
