More specifically, I can open corel draw, but I can't open a document OR create a new document.
Yes I've tried the F8 reset. Still no good.
Anyone else having this problem?
This might not be the only software I am having a problem with.
Edit:
Problem update for me is: Security Update for Windows 7 (KB2918614)
Didn't affect my other windows 7 machine. For now I am blocking that update.
I had a windows upate this morning, but CorelDraw is still working today.
Have you tried a repair or reinstall ?
I ended up having to do a restore point in windows to get it to work. I'll keep monitoring it. Just wanted to know if others had the same problem. Thanks all!
You'll need to change windows updates to manual and install them a few at a time, to check whether one of them was the cause.

Did this this morning.
Bump for visibility.
Haven't had a problem (Win 7 x64), but there have been several problems with the latest Windows patch leading Microsoft to recommend uninstalling some of them.
The baddie of the bunch was supposed to be KB2982791, which affected fonts and other goodies, but I've seen articles recommending uninstalling 4 or more of the updates. I hesitate to link the articles here, since they contain misleading instructions. If you scroll to the bottom of the KB article, it discusses some of that. And again, the problem is hit-or-miss; I never experienced a problem with any of them, but obviously others did.
