Cannot install KPT

Post by esebm »

Hi,
I am trying to install KPT into PSP X9 but an error message tells me that PSP X9 has to be installed first, which, of course, it is, I'm using it all the time.
Is there a solution?
Thanks,
Ed

Do you have the 32-bit version of PSPX9 installed? KPT = 32-bit plug-ins.

Thanks for the quick response.
No, I have the 64 bit version installed but Corel only provides a link to the 32 bit KPT.
Is there any way to switch that to the 64 bit KPT?
I had sent an e-mail to Corel but they don't seem to be in the habit of responding.

Unfortunately there are no 64-bit KPT plug-ins.

When you first installed PSP you were given the option to install 32-bit, 64-bit or both (recommended). If you install both you can use the 32-bit version of PSP for older 32-bit plug-ins like KPT.

OK, thanks. That clears things up.
Do you know of any 64 bit plug ins similar to KPT?

I don't know of any exact equivalents myself, but there are plugins that allow you to run 32-bit plugins inside of 64-bit programs like PSP.

https://www.mediachance.com/pluginbridge/

Plugin Bridge is the one I tested with PSP. Unfortunately, it does cost money. Around $30 at the moment. But it has been tested to work with KPT plugins.

Obviously, you'd still have to reinstall PSP with the 32-bit version to get KPT installed.
