CorelDRAW X5 :: Hangs On Open Or New After Every Other Reboot
Sep 12, 2012
I'm on an I5 running Windows 7 64-bit using CorelDRAW X5 ver 15.2.0.686. When I reboot my system (about once a week) and start CorelDraw, it hangs if I try to open any documents or create a new document. If I reboot again, so far, it will open documents without issue. This has been occurring for the last few (2-3) weeks. I installed and have been running the program daily on this system for about 18 months without any other unexpected issues.
I haven't had any issues with this version of CorelDraw crashing under any other regular circumstances. I've been a user since Version 2 (Late '80s early '90s)

The organizer has suddenly become unstable. When I try and open PSPX3, the organizer shows the spinning blue circle, and that just stays there forever. At the top of the program it says "not responding". I have to force the program closed. I've had PSPX3 for about six months, haven't had any problems before.
Is there something like a main thumbnail catalog file that can be deleted, so that that PXPX3 will rescan the hard drive. It acts like that catalog has become corrupt.
I haven't installed any patches in the last six months, and I can't tell you what version I have, because the program won't open.
Running Windows 7, 64 bit.

Windows 7 64 bit user.
Upgraded to 2.8 with total deletion of the Gimp folder to try to address this.
File / Open Recent works fine.
File / New etc same all good...
File / Open has a problem.
Once that window opens the product is hung.
There is no window to type the file name in, and I cannot click on any of the disk drive names.
I must admit that I have a good number of network and usb as well as physical drives. I do not think that any have changed names, but it seems clear that something like a path change is responsible?

Since last thursday we have been having major issues opening files from our network share on server 2012. Everytime we go to open an .ai it hangs illustrator for about 15-20 seconds?
This has only started happening to all 3 machines we have
Our network is 1GB links, 2 of our computers are massive spec, i5's 16gb ddr3 1600, ssds......., other one slightly older ddr2 no ssd (problem exists on them all)
If we drag the file to the desktop then open, this is instant but reading from the server is being a nightmare!

I have PS CS5 64 bit running on a PC, Win 7.
Everything has been working fine but I have recently installed two new extension panels - Fundy Image Brander and Tych Panel. When either of these scripts require you to input a file to open via the Open File dialogue box, everything hangs for 2-3 minutes. The mouse and keyboard do not lock and you can open up other windows which work fine. The open file dialogue just hangs (not just on selecting an individual image but selecting a drive or folder). If you call up the Task Manager and End Photoshop as a task a dialogue box pops up with the message "The system cannot end this program because it is waiting for a response from you."
Photoshop otherwise works well. It's just when the extension panel requires you to input a file to open.

I encountered problems with large prints from CorelDRAW X5 and I searched the forum for solutions (and didn't find any just questions with the same basic problem)
Set up:
processor Intel i5
memory 12Gb
Windows Home Premium 64bit
Corel X5 with memory limit patch (description at the end of the post).Every printer is on the network directly, some with fiery controllers other with their own network cards.For a demonstration I loaded a print merge with 2000 pages (but it could have been 20 pages with large graphicsm it would have a very similar result), as seen in the first picture.
When I open the print dialog Corel freezes up (hangs because it's waiting on splwow64.exe) until preflight is finished. If I attempt to modify ANY settings I have a 99% chance to crash the whole application. Depending on spooled file size this may take from 5 minutes to infinity. (picture in second post)
Naturally if for any reason the preflight needs to be generated again the waiting starts again.Also sometimes when I initialize printing, it hangs (third post with pic)And sometimes the preflight is generated incorrectly (as in the first page is printed multiple times and the same amount of pages are missing from the end or other wacky glitches)
So basically is there a way to speed up the preflight generation (as in resolve the splwow64.exe issue or somehow use 100% of the processor since it just using ~35% in my case) ?
Is there a way to only manually initiate a preflight after I set up the printing (not starting automatically when I open the print dialog)?Is there a way to start only a partial preflight ? (in most cases a sample of 5-10 pages from the document is enough to set up printing)I managed to solve a lot of the issues because I started out with CorelDraw crashing from generating the print merges or trying to save them - quite far from slow printing.
So the sum up of the solutions up to this point:
Switch from 32bit windows to 64bit.
Add RAM to a minimum of 8GB
Use memory patch on desired applications so the apps can use up to 4Gb of memory instead of 2Gb.Download patch here: URL.....
Applications (CorelDRW.exe and CorelPP.exe) in C:Program Files (x86)CorelCorelDRAW Graphics Suite X5Programs
And now all that stand in the way of fast printing is windows's 32bit-64bit printing translator

I have fully licensed X4 version. Last week i was receiving 4 different cdr files (cdr X4), created by other person (lets call him Jack). Files were ok, but there was some grammar mistakes, so I asked Jack to correct them and send files back to me. But! When he did that, I wasn't able to open theese files . My Corel hangs trying to open all of them. And it seems like files are opened and Corel is running, but i can not see anything, even panels...Only gray or white screen is visible.... Today, 12 of April, i received files (created also on version X4) from another person and story repeats. It only happans with some cdr X4 files, other works just fine.
Common thing is that all of them are created on X4 version. I tried several times to reinstall my corel, but it did work. I downloaded trial version of Corel X5 on other PC, there i was able to open them, save for version 14, only then i could open theese files on my pc. But i can not do that all the time. Jack is very active client and trial version is only for a month =). I need to understand is it my Corel problem, or Jacks. But todays events, shows it is my problem. I have a feeling, that it might be some corel updates, which prevent my Legal Corel X4 to open cdr files, created on Pirate Corel X4 version. Can it be true? Conflict between legal and illegal versions... If trully, such updates took place last week

I downloaded the trial version (assessment for thirty days) of Adobe Photoshop cs2. Once installed the trial version, the program works correctly, except for a basic function: to open files and modify them. Any image files (jpeg-gif-png-tiff-bmp-psd) on press command FILE>OPEN, or Ctrl+O, to open it, sends the system in crash, and without any warning message, send to "restart" the operating system, in my case , windows xp.
I use also photoshop cs, and it works correctly and allows to open file image also; but not with cs2.
What's the problem?

I rebooted my comptuer after making an illustration in photoshop (which was almost complete) and when I looked for the file to finish it there was nothing there but a 40 mb TMP file with the name ps7E. Is there any way I can get my PSD back? or is my file lost forever?

I am running PSE-10 on Windows 7. Recently, I changed the preference to bypass the Welcome screen. Ever since, I am unable to relaunch PSE without rebooting. Also, I can't get back to the Welcome screen from the Home icon. I have already reinstalled PSE.

I was facing problems with X5 soon after installing it, it actually doesn't installs properly. Somehow i have to End Process of installation and though find X5 in my Start menu of Windows XP SP2. Well the actual problem started when i recently tried to publish PDF for one of my client's brochure of 17 pages, X5 closes all of a sudden and i have to restart the whole process. At times it creates a PDF which then has errors and Acrobat Reader don't read it.At times X5 even gives Error while saving files. Then have to click Save till it actually saves the file.I uninstalled X5 thinking, there could be some corrupted files and re-installed, but all in vain..

This is all on a single PC. If backburner is half way through a job (like frame 30 out of 300) and the PC reboots, it will start over at from 0. If it completes, it will make that and not restart a completed job. I have also seen is restart suspended jobs on a reboot too. This is all on Windows 7.

I have found that with windows 7 64 bit (not sure about other versions) when inventor 2012 pro is installed, it causes windows safe mode to reboot at logon screen after like 3-4 seconds. I have found the cause to be a window service that it inventor installs called "Autodesk Moldflow Inventor Tool Suite Integration 2012 Job Manager". I disable this service via "msconfig" tool and windows safe mode works ok.

When designing brochures in X5, we quite often will save a file with no issues, but when we go to re-open it we end up with "encountered an improper arument" error message and the file is no longer able to be opened.
If you try to open the backup it comes up with a "runtime error" and won't open either. We are running Windows 7

About a month and a half ago, after a microsoft update, I cannot open .cdr files from the file/open list. When going to file/open, the programs hangs up, cannot even use "cancel", and have to go to Windows Task Manager to shut down the program. All is well until I try to open a file from file/open.
I can import .eps, and everything else seems fine.My work around is to open from My Documents --Which works fine. Just is a silly little aggravation.
I have uninstalled, reinstalled, repaired, etc....all the normal fixes.

I was working on my wedding album and had half of it done. The file size is 2.08 GB -- huge I know, and every time I saved the file or the autosave feature came on it took several minutes. I closed the file and tried to re-open it but all I got was a blank standard sized page. The same thing happened with the back-up.
I desperately need to submit the album pages in the next 12 hours or I lose the money I prepaid with the printer. I tried renaming the file as a .zip and then went into one of the folders and opened the riffData.cdr file, but no luck there. I also tried opening a new CDR file and importing the old one, but that didn't work.

I made a file in coreldraw x6 and unintentionally opened in corel X5. Obviously it didnt open. But apart from that, the file neither opens in corel x6 now!
It seems it cant be opened or something like that. But anyway it still sizes 2,94MB, so I am hopeful to recover it.

a similar problem, I am running CorelDraw x6 64 bit on a win 7 64 bit 8 gb ram 8 core processor machine. One machine that I use have x6 64 bit on win7 64 bit and the other one x5 32 bit on a win7 32 bit.I saved the work in x5 x4 and x3 versions on this machine; but the files I 'saved as' never open in any other machine except on x6 64 bit/32 bit machines. I tried opening them in x5 32 bit on win 7 32 bit but the files are not opening. the x6 64 bit files saved in above versions perfectly open in x6 32 bit; but not a single file that I saved in on x6 64 bit open in x5 32 bit.

I can't open my cdr file. It was created in CorelDraw x5. I think it's because file is too much - 16 Mb.
It would be good if someone can open that file and save a part of objects in lower CorelDraw version.
I've tried many ways to open it, but I can't...
I can upload it to somewhere on the net and send link to download.

i´d be very lucky if you tell me with which version of coreldraw you were able to open this file and/or how to avoid crashing of coreldraw x6 on my computer.
