How to convert old archicad 6 files into current versions?

Hello

I'm sorry to inform you but you can't open files made in version 6 with version 8.1 because 8.1 was a free upgrade since 8.0 had a tons of bugs. I advise you to download latest version from this site: https://helpcenter.graphisoft.com/?s=Archi+CAD%20versions&versions=version-18&redirect=archicadwiki

After you download and install latest version you will be able to open all version from 8.0 to latest version. In order to open version 6 and below you'll need to use version which match version of your file. I hope I helped. Regards.
