Corel X8 and X9 font drop down and slow performance

OK, something very strange has happened to CD X8  and X9. The font managing system is totally weird! I have only 112 fonts installed in my windows fonts folder. While CD shows 112 as the installed fonts it also shows the UNINSTALLED fonts (302). This causes the drop down to take a full 12 secs to open!.

So basically CD keeps records (cache) of these fonts that were once installed before being uninstalled. But here's what makes it real bad, I could accept it if it merely just showed the uninstalled fonts but instead it acts as if they're in fact still installed so everything is very very slowwwwww. As previously mentioned the font drop down alone takes 12 full seconds to open, then ANY action whatsoever takes about the same amount of time. Basically the fonts might as well be installed because uninstalling them does nothing whatsoever. 

So I'm guessing CD keeps records of these fonts SOMEWHERE just so if you ever need them you can immediately access them? whatever but  CORELDRAW PLEASE TELL US WHERE ON EARTH DOES IT DO THAT? so we can access it and delete? Someone mentioned the 'Font database' well I tried that, deleted the contents and nothing happened. Back to a painfully slow font drop down list and a 100% UNUSABLE program.

Remember there are ONLY 112 fonts actually installed!!! Where the hell is it storing it's font cache??
