Is it possible to get an install file for V X5 Pro?

[jensenholmes]

I recently had a cryptolock virus that took out my harddrive. I had the laptop cleaned and resinstalled with Windows, but I'm in the process of reinstalling all my programs and apps.

I had Corel Video Studio Pro X5. I still have my purchase serial number and activiation code for that, but I need the installation file. Is there someplace on the corel site, or via support, I can get that?

Also, while I'm at it, a question: I primarily use videostudio to edit and convert large video files (7-9GB) to mp4 720 dpi. My pro X5 does it fine, but it does take a while and the laptop (fairly new Alienware gamer laptop) cranks away. Would VX8 be able to do this faster?

Thanks in advance, Jane

Hello and welcome to the forum

I have assumed that you really mean X5 and X8 and have amended your post accordingly V5 and V8 are very very old programmes I have assumed you are talking X5 (version 15) and X8 (version 18) which is the current one

to your problem - you should be able to download your programme from the Corel website - please go to this topic - http://forum.corel.com/EN/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=53001&
and follow the instructions in my answer there - it is for paintshop but the process is exactly the same for VideoStudio
