Is there a way to get an earlier version of Lightroom Classic (for example, v. 12.6)? In the Creative Cloud I can't find anything previous to v. 13.0.

Just so you know for the future, the reason for that is Adobe has a posted policy of supporting and providing only the last two major versions for installation in the Creative Cloud app. For Lightroom Classic, right now that means versions 14 and 13.

 

So getting an older version like 12 requires other means such as what Rob_Cullen suggested.

The only way known is to contact Adobe Support and ask for the download. (Subscription ius required)

Contact adobe support by clicking here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen

In the chat field (lower right of screen), Typing “Agent” into the chat text field will bypass the initial chatbot.
be patient, it can take quite a while to reach a human
If you are not able to get to the chat window, then disable your ad-blockers, firewall, enable cookies/scripts on your browser. If it still fails then change your browser/machine/network.

If you're contacted via email or private message, it's more likely to be a scammer than an adobe representative. Double check for an employee badge if contacted in the forums and look for an {adobe.com} domain in the email address if you click reply to an email. Any other method of contacting (or offering to contact you) is almost certainly a scam, https://community.adobe.com/t5/using-the-community-discussions/staying-safe-in-the-adobe-support-com...
