How to move Corel programs from old computer to new computer

Post by Dick Walters »

I have purchased a new computer and want to put the Corel programs (Corel Video Studio 12, Corel Video Studio Pro X4, Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2) on my new computer. These were downloaded from the computer and I don't remember getting a disc. Is there a way to transfer these programs to the new computer? Thanks for any help.

If you didn't pay for download insurance, then the only way would be to use the installation files which you will still hopefully have somewhere on your old computer or even better, a CD or DVD on which you copied them as a safe back-up.

In addition to what Ken mentioned, you may want to check if your new computer is using Windows Vista or Windows 7. It will most likely running Windows 7, so you may want to check if the old Corel program that you have is compatible with Window 7/Vista.

You can find a list of Corel Program that are compatible with Windows 7 here: http://www.corel.com/windows7

Windows Vista here: http://www.corel.com/vista/
