Problem with option boxes

I have a problem in Corel Draw & Photo-Paint 2018 that none of the check boxes in the settings menus such as for preferences and work space or for printing work properly. I can click on the boxes and it seems to do what it's supposed to, but no checkmark appears in the box and it is not saved for next time. (The problem appeared as soon as the trial was installed, so it's not a matter of repair install, cleaning temp file, etc. I'm on Windows 10 and haven't had that issue with any previous versions.)
