Yesterday I could not open any CDR files. I sent one to a colleague and she opened it just fine and resaved it for me. I still couldn't open the one she then sent back to me.
So I tried the REPAIR option for Corel Draw and that did not help. Then I tried to uninstall and reinstall, but this did not work. I uninstalled Corel Draw x6 and when I try to reinstall I get a message that says, " A newer version of Corel Draw is already installed. If you want to install this older version, first uninstall the newer version".
I had Corel updated to x6.3. How do I reinstall Corel Draw in this case?
This is the 32bit version I have installed as the 64bit version will not run on my PC at all. Win 7 Home Premium SP1 (64-bit OS)
Thank you.

Angel,
Look through this thread https://coreldraw.com/forums/t/38723.aspx?PageIndex=3
Sounds the same.
Bob,
Thanks for the link. I read through that thread and it helped me to understand what is involved, but nothing helps. So far I have:
Uninstalled Corel Draw x6 (rebooted)
Uninstalled the Shell Extension (rebooted)
Deleted the COREL folder in1) ...Program Files (x86)2) ...Users\Angel Roldan\AppData\Roaming(Empty the Recycle Bin + rebooted)
I have run a Registry Cleaner and it removed a TON of Corel entries (rebooted)
I have searched the "C" drive w/ the keyword "corel" and deleted everything (rebooted)
I am STILL getting that error. If I had hair on my head, I'd be pulling it out at this point - very frustrated.
This is the dialogue I get:
