TL;DR
There’s no legal “free full version” of HAP 6.2. Carrier offers a free 60-day eDesign trial and licensed installers via its official portal. As of today, the current build is HAP v6.x, and you can request the trial or purchase a license directly from Carrier.
Is “HAP 6.2 Free Download” real?
Yes, only as a time-limited official trial. Use Carrier’s eDesign Trial page to request a free 60-day trial (HAP is part of the eDesign suite). Licensed users get access to the download page; the full program requires a valid license key. Avoid third-party mirrors.
