Hi

Just to add, if your problem is related to the windows updates then Corel did provide a fix which needs installing, usually after installing Cvsx8.

http://forum.corel.com/EN/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=58892

Please scroll down to CVSX8 details to download the Corel VideoStudio X8.5
Hotfix 2

If this does not fix your issue, try running X8 with internet turned off………
