UNSOLVED
Paint Shop pro Problem
I recently bought a Dell Inspiron with Windows 8.1. I loaded Paint shop Pro Photo X2 and the program runs fine. However if I exit the program I am unable to restart it. I changed the compatibilty setting to Windows XP service pk 3 and I was able to restart it. But the next day it won't restart. I have to turn off the computer and turn it back on to get the program running.

I only say that because there may be bugs, known or unknown, that Corel has not fixed related to Windows 8 ... There may or may be a fix for it.

Corel hasn't validated X2 on Windows 8.x:

Microsoft has also recommended an upgrade to a newer version of the program:
