I'm almost ready to start up with buying dark room equipment. All I know right now is that the only computer that can let me work with any graphics program that I own right now is my desktop with XP! I am not asking anyone to solve this Windows problem (unless of course you can) but I would at least like to know if anyone has been experiencing this, either with this new update or in previous updates. I am having an ongoing conversation with people at Microsoft (I think I'm up to my 6th or 7th person, including three different agents, two supervisors, one Tier 2 tech, and one from 'escalation') and I haven't even mentioned this problem with Paint Shop because it just happened after my last conversation with them. So the only difference that I can see is this new update with Windows.

This has never ever ever happened to me with Paint Shop Pro (or photoshop or even any other application). I reset the whole program through it's own reset tool (I believe it erases all the personal preference you have set for workspaces.) And I have tried it for the native Paint Shop Pro file type (psp). I click the 'ok' button on that and I then get: 'Unable to create the file'. an easy file type, yes? And I get, first: 'Unspecified Error'. And that gives me a workspace, finally, and I click edit/paste from whatever it says (special?) and it pastes in.īut then I click to save, I choose jpg. I figure out a work around by clicking on the 'edit' tab that's at the top of the open screen. I reopen and try 'new file from template' and poof it's gone again. So I clicked on 'New file' and the whole thing just shut down completely - poof it's gone. But all I was trying to do was paste an image from the clipboard.

So I'm one step ahead of Photoshop there. (Photoshop gets stuck at finding a twain file and shuts down). But I hadn't tried using PSP since today. Now about two or three weeks ago or so, a new upgrade was forced upon me. But PSP worked and it continued to work when I was forced to upgrade to 1803.

I don't know which version of Windows 10 it had. I bought PSP soon after buying a brand new Surface a year ago. But I bought PSP Pro last year as kind of a back up and thought it would maybe have a few different things I could use since I never have bought into all the upgrades Adobe has offered (let alone the subscription service). I don't want to have to explain or defend my wishing to use them. First it disabled the use of two old but working programs (Adobe CS2 both Photoshop and InDesign). I have recently been forced into the latest Windows 10 update, version 1903.
