The tutorial

PLEASE NOTE THAT I TRIED TO MAKE THIS GUIDE AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE, AND I'M AWARE THERE ARE BETTER WAYS TO DO THIS

(Do note it will download to the C: drive. There is no way to change the drive in the method I teach you, however if you are concerned about storage space, this version is only 0.8 GB)

1. Use a web browser like Internet Explorer to view Web Sites.
2. Close Steam
3. In the web browser, enter steam://open/console as the URL
4. Paste "download_depot 622630 622631 3841605836683299578" into the console. (622630 means Bendy: Secrets of the Machine, 622631 means Depot 1 of BSotM, and 384160583668299578 means the oldest manifest.)
5. Hit Enter.
6. Wait for it to finish.
7. Once it is finished it will tell you where it downloaded the oldest version to. Open file explorer and head to that location.
8. Double-click the exe titled "Bendy Secrets of the Machine.exe" and start playing!

Even I haven't run this version myself and don't know what to expect so beware.

End

hope you enjoyed the tutorial
