    Hello,

    I am having the same issue using the free viewer version. Could I get a link to an older version of the free viewer in order to access the .brd files I am trying to view? The .brd files were made in 16.6 version.

    Thank you.

    Both of these are for version 24.1. I need an older version that supports files created with version 16.6.
