And if so is it worth it?
I (finally! hooray!) got CorelDraw X3 to install on a new Windows 10 laptop, it came with Win. 8 and suggested to install 10 on first boot. The trick was to use the *.msi files (install cd:\CGS13, click on type to gather them together) instead of the automatic install. I used the setup.msi first (by itself it wouldn't run) and then did the en.msi (English, I think), the vba.msi and the FontNav.msi — the ISUS.MSI seemed to have problems and hung, I think it has to do with updates. You have to do the setup.msi first as the others will fault-out without it. I then started X3 with F8 pressed. I only installed CorelDraw as that's all that I use. Of course there were no shortcuts to the desktop installed, but that’s easy. This method may or may not work with other versions, I've no way to check. Don’t ask me why X3 re-installed (using the regular install) on my desktop with Win. 10 (upgraded from Win. 7) with no problems — but it did — the new laptop was the only problem. I plan on removing X7 home & student (very crippled, IMHO) from all my systems when I feel comfortable with the X3 install on the laptop, probably within 3-4 months. Yes, X7 (even the home & student) has some good points, but I am not willing to pay the price for them and I want VBA. I have not (yet) had any problems with either system and have opened several old X3 (and X7 files saved as X3) .CDRs and installed several .GMS (aka vba) files. Also, I have found that X7 files saved as X3 version - when opened in X3 - can have problems if there are any custom fills. There may be other similar problems. I will put in a disclaimer here, I do not claim that this is a trouble free install and if you run into any problems you have been warned. I am not a software professional and I do not take responsibility for your install or your system. Brian
