Yeah it is junk ware Gerard should resign in shame as a failure and Corel should tell truth about how bad its software is.
2.5 million users and you can't make it work, there's a surprise!
You've been posting crap like this since I can remember.
Unfortunately, there is more than a kernel of truth to this statement. I have faithfully relied on Draw to make a living since version 3.0, and the last two (X7 and X8) have been the most buggy, unreliable and problematic versions I have worked with. However, calling something a piece of crap is neither productive nor informed. Maybe those who dump all over Corel should move on and leave the rest of us, who want to work to fix and improve things, alone. You bring nothing to the table.

Well, as an old user too I disagree with this point of view. If you start with version 3.0 you should have known several worst versions. For example, the version 4.0 was the worst ever. You can't perform a simple color separations, since it include black on all separatios (a wrong color management that works on RGB). Ans version 6.0 was one of the worst too since it was developed for the beta of Windows 95 (aka Chicago) and t was not fully compatible with the final release. And, if you want to develop the list of worst versions ever, version 10.0 was also a abd version and versions 11 and 12 had a lot of bugs and problems.
Myron I'm running X8 fully patched on a fresh build of Windows 10 64 bit fully updated. I KEEP MY SYSTEMS CLEAN!

I understand, but in defense of know one but a touch of reality. Since X5, Windows has been through version Vista, 7, 8, 8.1. 10 with what would be 2 service packs and the anniversary update with what would be called a service pack after that just for version 10. During that Corel went from 32 bit to 64 bit support.
It's tough for a user who may not have kept ALL their hardware and software up to date, let alone Corel trying to backward support all its users.
There's one guy with issues on a massive sever grade system, mostly due to a mid grade video card. The there's me, 1.9 GB files with drop shadows opening in less than 20 seconds and running like a rocket. CLEAN system lots of video processing, don't try what I do on an AMD laptop!
