Thanks to this awesome tip, I have regained convenient access to all my PSP files that I was locked out of because of Corel's poor programming. Long live JASC 7.

While we can appreciate the sentiment, you should note that you have that access because Corel coders put an Options button in the dialog giving you access to those old versions. Contrast that with those A____ holes who made P________ CS5 not handle the digital negatives that D____ R__ puts out. A____ no longer publishes CS6, which could handle those images. It's forcing new users onto their subscription services. I think you will agree that Corel is being nice to us in providing that backward capability and not forcing new users onto a subscription service.
