I want to install "Allegro Free Physical Viewer 16.6" to  view an old .brd file with old version(16.6), but it is not available on the Cadence website. 

Could a moderator please provide me with the download?

    Unfortunately there is no way to provide this installer. You can use a 25.1 installation to uprev the design using dbDoctor.
