  1. Corel Draw X3 Error Product Installation Unsuccessful Please Reinstall

I've been using corel draw x3 and windows 7 for more than a month. I cannot remember when I last used corel draw x3. Today I've found something unusual. My PC has two account: one with admin rights and another is standard account. Corel Draw X3 runs fine on admin account, but when it is started from standard account (without admin right), it shows the following error:

I've been using corel draw x3 and windows 7 for more than a month. Product installation unsuccessful. I tried both repair and reinstalling the product. Product installation unsuccessful, please reinstall (error 24). Corel DRAW'da hizalama ve da Everytime I try to start the app it comes up with 'Product Installation Unsuccessful Please. Product installation unsuccessful, please reinstall. Stevec over 7 years ago. I have been happily using Corel Draw X3 for many months.

Product installation unsuccessful, please reinstall

I could run this product definitely on standard user account last month. But it is not running now. I tried to run it with all compatibility mode: from windows 95 to vista service pack 2. For some mode, it opens and closes immediately after showing the splash screen, and for other mode it shows the above error. How to fix this problem?

It does sound like the application needs admin rights to run.

Have you tried right clicking on the shortcut or executable and selecting 'Run as Administrator'? (This might not be the exact wording as I don't have Windows 7 to had to double check).

I know you said you could run it using the standard account, but did you run it as administrator in the past? Also have you changed the UAC level?

UPDATE

Given the new information in that the same error occurs when trying to run as admin, it now sounds like X3 has been corrupted somehow. Could anything you have installed/uninstalled or enabled/disabled in the last month have affected it? Have you tried reinstalling X3 - either a repair or a full uninstall/reinstall?

Do you have a restore point from when X3 was working? If you can go back to that and try again.

Get fix file from here

In Windows Vista extract the file to C:Program DataCorelCorelDraw Graphics Suite X4, which can be seen through WinRar when prompted to extract. Just say yes to replace the existing file and it works!!

If you are not running Vista try these paths instead:

Its been about 3weeks since I have been using x4 and today I got the below error.

I don't know what was the cause of this error. I have a windows 7 running very great, but the error came you.

Provide some good advice on how I'll resolve this issue.
