Greetings all.
Recently (last 1-2 days) CorelDraw x7 has been taking a lot longer than normal to copy/cut.
All other functions seem completely normal. Pasting seems almost instant.
I have tested on a new file with just a square, and it's the same delay (7-8 seconds) as when I copy a huge bit of artwork.
I've made no alterations to any settings, installed any new software or otherwise altered my system in the last few days, so I'm at a loss to explain it.
I have installed the latest update (Current version is 17.2.0.688).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
I solved my problem. I read another post on here about a similar issue, the solution to that was to remove a printer.
I simply opened the printer drivers and removed it from the system - Copying instantly returned to normal. I also remembered that A few days before I posted my problem above I'd recently added a network printer to print something off (which I don't usually do).
So the issue is directly related to how Corel handles network printers in my case - no idea why, but that's the problem - no other software on my computer had any problems at all during this period, just Corel and nothing helped except removing that printer (which admittedly is a fairly old model now!).
I am having the same issue even (6 second delay) after performing the tasks below:
delete temp files
reboot
start with blank drawing and a rectangle

The problem does not appear to be document-based. Illustrator copies almost instantaneously.
current environment:
Windows 10 Pro 64bit
16GB RAM
SSD 450GB, 200GB free space
If your videocard is amd try clean install driver version 17.4 or below. It helped me.
