Answer 1

Here is something that can help you.

If you know the URL of the Module then try removing .aspx from the URL for example if the module URL is

http://marketplace.sitecore.net/Modules/L/Language_And_Version_Manager.aspx

then remove the .aspx from the last and try

http://marketplace.sitecore.net/Modules/L/Language_And_Version_Manager

Here is the accepted solution link for this.

The Sitecore Marketplace is going to or retired already for technical reasons. Sitecore has now the new Developer Portal (https://developers.sitecore.com) and marketplace for pre-built connectors and apps from Sitecore and its partners that extend Sitecore, and make weaving it into client's business easy, fast, and flexible.

Sitecore recommends GitHub as a great place to host your modules, and many other community members are already doing this. A lot of community members will have an associated blog article posted somewhere to explain/advertise the module. Make sure your README in your GitHub repo has the information needed for search engines to surface your module to people looking for it!

I think Sitecore added redirects for these marketplace modules and that's why it is redirecting to the product marketplace - https://www.sitecore.com/products/marketplace

It's a Hack but for now, you can run the URL by removing the .aspx and can download the module or can navigate to the GitHub repo from the page.

I hope Sitecore will create some kind of page with links to these modules and GitHub path before completely retiring The Sitecore Marketplace.
