Folks, I had X8 on my old win 10 computer and it worked fine. I'm trying to install X8 on a new win 10 rig, but it gets to about 95% and then quits. Anyone know how I can make this work?
funny thing is if I do a computer Search for corel, I can see Draw and Photo Paint, but when I click either, it briefly appears then closes.
I look in Add / Remove and don't see anything corel.
hope someone can help with this!
I sure would like some advice on this issue folks.
You might want to try using compatibility mode when installing and maybe afterwards, when opening the program.

yeah I was finally able to get it installed and registered!
Did you have to do any extra steps to get it installed or did it just finally work? I still have my older copies of CDR so I'm interested if I might be able to install them.
