've been using corel X7 since it came out with no issues. In the last few days, when I try to start a new document, it (coreldraw) crashes. If I try to open a document, it crashes. the other corel programs work perfectly.. photopaint, capture... I've tried the F8 trick, I've uninstalled / reinstalled... completely uninstalled and installed X6... same issue in X6… I’ve reinstalled .net 4.5…
I've been using Corel for 21 years and this one has me stumped!
Becuase you'll no doubt ask, my setup is:
Dell Precision T5600intel Xeon e5-263064gb ramwindows 7 64bit
Thanks!
Hoping that I don't have to re-install windows!
Have you recently accepted an iCloud update?
No icloud on the computer.. no itunes... There is an update for Quicktime available but I have not updated it in a long while...
Just noticed that if I run CorelDraw X7 in compatibility mode for Windows 7,or run it as an administrator, that it works. I shouldn't have to do that though. It's a workaround, but it's not the solution...

What mode were you previously running it in?
Not entirely sure. I kind of got tired of installing / uninstalling and just right clicked the icon and went into properties. I tried clicking on compatibility mode for windows 7 and it worked... then I unchecked compatibility mode and just checked run as administrator and that worked too... although I have to click the stupid "Do you want to allow the following program to make changes to this computer?" dialog box each time.
