CorelDraw 2021 crashing on MacBook Pro 2021 M1 Pro

Hey! 

First time post for me so thanks in advance for reading.

I am trying to use CorelDraw on the new 2021 MacBook Pro with M1 Pro Chip. The software is constantly crashing on me and seems to be sporadic in doing so which means I can't even put it down to a specific action that's causing it. As it stands, it's completely unusable for me. 

Is anyone else having this issue? Does anyone know of a workaround for this? Are there any updates in the pipeline to resolve this issue? 

Thanks again!

  • I have a 2015 Mac that crashes badly after updating to Monteray, it has 64GB of ram. I have a Macbook Air that seems to be more stable. For Christmas, my wife got me an iMac with the M1 and it seemed fine out of the box, but when I updated it Corel has crashed very badly to the point that I had to uninstall it and try and salvage the files I was working on as even the backups would crash on opening. It nearly had me in tears to think that I had lost the work. Luckily, I used my Macbook, opened the file, saved it, then opened it on the iMac. My issues seem to gravitate around trying duplicate images, taking screenshots, and as mentioned, opening files. I've lost half a day but thankfully, saved my work.
