Welcome box and help box suddenly are missing

Post by honeyphan »

Hi- I hope someone can help me?

I upgraded to Videostudio X6 in the black Friday sale- and when I open my video editor, a picture pop up box usually appears, with a link to check for updates, showing another link with bonus content, etc, and the orange exclamation button in the top right hand corner of the screen (once I click the x on the box and get into my program) usually shows help content.

Since I registered, now all I get is a huge white box for the welcome- it's no longer the full picture- with a cut off tiny bit of the picture screen in upper left corner, but when I put my mouse over a few of the links (not all of them are showing), they don't activate, some just show another white box with the the word "OK" and once I get into the program and click on the help content button- I get a white box that just says "OK". Same with when I exit- I know longer see the tip of the day or any specials - just a white box that says "OK"

I did click the small box at very beginning before editing program appears on monitor- the popup that shows the sale for this version for Black Friday - to have it never show again (since I just bought it)- but when I did the same with Videostudio X5- this never happened, so I don't think that's the problem.

I think it has to do with after I registered- days after - because it was working fine til then.

I saw some were having a problem with Internet Explorer and offered tips- but I use Firefox.

Can someone please help me rectify this problem? I really don't want to uninstall and reinstall, because I spent days preparing my folders in my library for easy use and retrieval and I don't want to lose all that information/work.

Thank you. :)

Hi,
I just experienced the same problem with VS X5 Pro and there is another topic for VS X6 Ultimate having a similar problem. The title of my post is "CorelGuide Hangs after Download of Title Pack 7", and other post is titled "VSX6 Ult Blank CorelGuide Welcome Screen". You may want to review both to determine some of the suggestions might help you. Unfortunately, I had to uninstall and reinstall X5. Good luck!
