PaintShop Pro 2020 Crashes on start

Post by ElmerFudd »

Hi :)
On first attempt to open PaintShop Pro 2020, it crashed. Tried a re-install. Tried reset to default using the shift key on icon.
I suspect it doesn't like older video cards.

Please help

I have installed Windows 10 1909 build 18363.815 and I have the problem, that Paintshop Pro 2020 it closed again, short time after view the splashscreen. Do you know a workaround for this problem?

You can try resetting PSP to default. Here are instructions. They reference PSP X6 but this works for all versions.

If that doesn't work, you can log a support ticket with Corel. https://www.corel.com/en/contact-us/
PSPX9 | PSP2020 | PSP2021| PSP2022 | PSP2023 & PhotoMirage installed; PSPX | PSPX2 thru PSP2019 owned but not installed
