You'll be back where you started before renaming the folder, and you'll need to do some more troubleshooting.OTTAWA, ONTARIO-(Marketwired - April 26, 2016) -Įditors Note: There are four photos associated with this press release. If it doesn't fix the problem you can simply delete the new Registry folder the program created (it will be adjacent to the renamed key), rename the "PrintEngineOLD" folder back to the original name of "PrintEngine," and reboot your computer. If you have backed up the Registry - or perhaps made an entire disk image of your boot drive, which is my preferred method - then you should be able to easily and quickly rename the relevant PrintEngine folder for your current version of WordPerfect and then reboot the computer, as described above. This is why the procedure is included on my site (I don't just add things to my site without a good reason - which includes my own thorough testing of tips, methods, etc.). In my experience visiting various WordPerfect peer-support sites over many years, I have seen numerous reports that resetting the program's Print Engine folder in the Windows Registry has fixed the user's problem.
Perhaps Corel will jump in here and clarify this procedure for multiple versions of WordPerfect on the same computer. Hopefully Corel will include some extra information about that Registry folder for people with more than one WP version installed on the same system.īut perhaps renaming the entire parent folder ("PrintEngine" to "PrintEngineOLD") will be enough since opening each of the versions should automatically create a fresh new subfolder for that version of WordPerfect. This is recommended because it discusses how to back up the registry first. I also have a reference on my site on how to reset the PrintEngine ( ) which quotes the general Corel procedure. Then restart WordPerfect X8 and it should create a new subfolder ("18") for the PrintEngine. Then restart Windows - i.e., reboot the computer - so it reads the new Registry. If it were my system I would rename (NOT delete) the sub-folder (e.g., "18" to "18OLD") so you can restore it if needed.
Since you have more than one version of WordPerfect installed, you should have more than one sub-folder under "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Corel\PrintEngine".
The "print engine" is a Windows Registry folder. I'm not 100% sure about this, but that said.
