X8 locks up when attempt to save

I recently installed CorelDRAW X8 on a Dell at home. Every time I attempt to "Save" or "Save As" Corel locks up. Regardless of where I click I only get a ding - nothing responds. The only way out is Task Manager / End Task.  I can export to PDF, IF I don't make the mistake of reflexively hitting "Save."  The program is not even offering the unsaved (unsaveable) file when I reopen.

I have CorelDRAW X8 64-Bit Version 18.1.0.661 on Windows 10 Home, Version 1511, Build 10586.494. No Wacom. Running dual CPU with 4GB Physical Memory.

Please send patch.

Thank you,

IndyDMan

    delete temp files and try again.
    To create a delete temp file shortcut just open notepad and copy/paste the text you see in between the lines below. Hit save, choose "All Files" in the type dropdown, name the file and add .bat to the end. Save it to the desktop. When corel crashes just run that file and see if it gets you back in business.
