Corel DVD movie factory 7 SE

Postby gregska_ on Sun May 20, 2012 1:02 am

I have been using this program to add menus to DVD's and burn to disc for years and have only recently had this problem. When I am done with the "select a template to create a menu step: 2 of 3 page" and I click "next" the "next" button disappears after a moment and the program stops responding, it just stays on the "select a template to create a menu step: 2 of 3 page". It does this regardless of the video involved, have tried it with lots of different videos, it also does this if a menu is added or not. What could be causing this? Should I just reinstall the program?
Thanks.

When you say you have only recently had the problem - does that coincide with your change to Windows 7 - or has the programme worked for a while on Win 7 ?

one work around which works for many people is the keyboard shortcut "alt+N" - might be worthwhile you just trying that.

Have been using Windows 7 for a long time. Could you tell me more about the "alt+n", when do I use it and what does it do? Thanks.

alt+N is a standard windows keyboard short cut which can be used in almost all windows based programmes. It is the keyboard shortcut for 'Next' so whenever you want to use the next button in a programme (or the button is not visible for some reason) you can instead press the 'alt' key and the 'N' key at the same time. It is one of numerous keyboard shortcuts built into windows programmes - perhaps the best known of which are 'ctrl+C' for 'copy' and 'clrl+V' for 'paste'

The short cut doesn't do anything.

Start by clearing out all your temp files using disc clean up. This can often clear any problems caused by rogue corrupt files or too much info in preferences files etc.

Did you not save it to your hard drive when you downloaded last time?
Check the corel main site to see if it is still available as a download.
