Paintshop Pro X8 trial

Post by carl365 »

I'm running PSP X7 paid version right now. Will there be any conflicts or other problems if I downloaded the PSP X8 trial version?

Thank you.

There should not be any problem as you can run multiple versions of PSP without conflict. I currently have 5 versions installed.
PSPX9 | PSP2020 | PSP2021| PSP2022 | PSP2023 & PhotoMirage installed; PSPX | PSPX2 thru PSP2019 owned but not installed

Thank you.
There never seems to be an issue running all versions of PSP, including older ones from Jasc, on your computer. Today I decided to try - and so installed - X8, partly because there are a couple of new features I like but even more because posts here and what I've seen in reviews say that it runs much faster than X7. That increase in speed is important for me with an older system, so I'm going to compare and if it's true then it's likely worth the upgrade for me with, of course, the addition of the few new features I like.

I'll try to remember to post back - here or a new thread - if I find that it does out-perform X7 and don't find any bugs that make it non-workable for me - or with negative results if that turns out to be the case . Stay tuned! :-)

Thank you Kathy_9 and JoeB. It'll be interesting the speed difference.

I did start a new thread - Posting for discussion only is part of the subject title - where I'll probably post my findings after I've had time to actually try stuff out. That thread is here:
