Paint Shop Pro X2 damages self, then deactivates
I purchased, downloaded PS Pro X2, it downloads and works fine. Then every night it seems to deactivate itself. When I go to use it I get an error message " This ccopy pf Paint Shop Pro has been damaged or illegaly modified. Please reinstall from original source" I reinstall, it works fine....then same thing happens again. Any ideas to a fix?

Check to make sure you have the Protexis Licensing Service enabled. If it is disabled you will get that error message.

Welcome to the forums, 
This might be due to Corel's anti-piracy service they have been using. It's called Protexis Licensing. It must be active at the time the program runs. See the post in the following link.

Re: Paint Shop Pro X2 damages self, then deactivates
Now that I have found where the Protexis files are I see another problem. There are two Protexis files:
Protexis Licensing and Protexis Licensing V2. One or the other keeps "disabling" itself. I turn one one, PSPX2 works...then the next day on of the Prtexis files is disabled again
Any ideas why??
