  • CorelDraw X4 ARM [Application Recovery Manager] Problem

    I just got a new system (HP wx4600 workstation with windows XP pro), and installed coreldraw on it. It works fine when I doubleclick on a file to open it, but whenever I invoke the common dialog box for opening, finding, or saving a file, it triggers the application recovery manager with the usual boilerplate about the application being unstable and you should save your work.

    I've tried the usual things: reinstalling, installing the service packs, resetting the workspace, etc. The problem occurs even when I run coreldraw with windows in safe mode, and occurs in photopaint as well as draw. There isn't a problem when I open a file via the recently-used files list; it seems to come from that common dialog box for picking files.

    Bulling through the ARM (hitting the cancel button) causes it to pop up several times, but I eventually get to a corrupted version of the common dialog box. This is semi-functional, and I can use it to open a file, after which things seem to work OK.

    I've contacted corel, but I though I'd ask here too, to see if anyone else has ever seen this problem.

    I used to have the similar problem.....

    I figured out the problem. I use the microsoft "tweakUI" powertoy, and when setting up my new system I unchecked the "remember previously-used filenames" under the common dialogs settings. That caused the common dialog box in CorelDraw & Paint to cough blood and die when invoked.

    Rechecking that setting fixed the problem.

      I noticed the same problem with a windows installation CD tweaked by nLite. Here is the registry entry if You not have tweakUI handy.

      ----------------------------------------

      Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

      [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies]

      [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Policies\comdlg32]
      "NoFileMru"=dword:00000000

      ----------------------------------------

        The registered version of this software is good for all mechanics work.
        Register key is also working so go for it and download the new version of the coralDraw.
