There doesn't seem to be a pattern or a particular type of file I am working on, but I've been having this issue lately. I will be working on a file, and just suddenly Coreldraw is gone! It just shuts down. Doesn't give an error message or anything. When I start the program up again, it will say it found a backup file (or more than 1) do I want to open it? and of course, unless I've recently saved it, I will have lost most of my work. I just don't know why it is shutting down. Any insight??
Any recent windows updates? I have found that the first launch of CorelDRAW after some windows updates can be hinky. After a system reboot no problems even if Windows does not request a restart. My routine has me checking updates first thing every day, if it's anything other then just a virus definition I reboot.
Yes there have been a couple Windows updates - I will try the reboot, thanks.
