WARNING ! DO NOT REMOVE SHELL EXTENSION

Hi Everybody,
.. WARNING !!!!!!
DO NOT REMOVE COREL-WINDOWS SHELL EXTENSION !!!!!!!
.. The *.cpt thumbnails will disappear from the face of the earth.
I don't understand why or how, but this is what happened.
1. Purchased new 64 bit computer with Win 7.
2. Installed X4, X5, and X6.
3. Uninstalled X6 AND (unfortunately) uninstalled Windows Shell Extension.
4. No more thumbnails for *.cpt files. Just the red icon for all cpt
images.
5. Installed X6 again.
6. Still no thumbnails for cpt files in Windows Explorer
.. PANIC
.. Drank a few beers. That cleared my head.
7. Used Windows "Restore" to get back to the good old days
VOILA !
8. Thumbnails now show up.
MORAL: Never ever remove a Shell Extension. It seems that the Shell
Extension tells Windows how to display cpt files. Most unfortunately, it
does not install again when the application is reloaded
