DB Doctor

Hi I'm using 23.1 version free viewer and had a message saying that I need DB Doctor pop up when I was trying to open a .brd file.

It seems like I don't have DB Doctor installed, could I get link or file to download it over email?

    Unfortunately, there is no stand alone installer for dbdoctor. I will discuss internally if this can be made available.Cadence will only maintain one viewer version going forward. Therefore, you should look for an installer for the "allegro_free_viewer_classic.exe". Hopefully somebody has this stored somewhere which they can share with you. 

    The classic viewer was available for free online download up to 2022 before and during Allegro 22.1. but  is now not available since Allegro X 23.1 was launched.
