Full Version: CorelDraw Problem Revisited

A lot of times you can open windows explorer, then go to Tools, Folder Options. Then the tab File Types, scroll to where you see CDR. Click on the Advanced button, then see if you can check the "Browse in Same Window" option. Otherwise you have to use DDE under the Open command. Which I can't help you with, it's a little too technical for me.

Sometimes you don't see the Advanced tab, you see a Restore... not sure what to do then. Other than changing the registry manually (blech).

In the same place that Shaddy mentioned, after hitting the Advanced tab, is a place to set the icon. You should be able to simply browse from there to CorelDraw and select the icon.

Mike - I have the same setup (XP, SP2, Corel 12) and had the same dang double-load problem. But my problem is it appeared and disappeared without any intervention from me.

One day it began occuring - I rebooted several times to no avail - and then as quickly as it started, it mysteriously stopped.

I can offer no insight to you other than to say 'I feel your pain'! Back in my tech support days (a looooong time ago), if a user suggested their problem might be due to the rain or El Nino, we said 'ok' and left it at that. Perhaps it's come back to haunt me!!

If you do find a solution, let me know so I can take whatever steps to make sure my double-load problem doesn't resurface...when it rains! ;)

Shaddy, Dave - yup, been there, done that.

I can do the icon replacement on just about anything on my system - except for CorelDraw. Hmmm, go figure.

As mentioned, the only way I was able to resolve that issue last time was to use a 3rd party icon fixxer upper/restorer program. As to which i can not find or remember the name.

oh well, like I say, all is working the way it is supposed to now, I can live without the graphic in the icon.

Thanks!

Holly, I think the problem is now Global Warming. B-)

Actually I did resolve the double incidence issue.
See Dave's post for solution:

If that doesn't work for you, send an e-mail to Al Gore, afterall he invented both the internet and global warming! (devil)

Mike,

The new, politically-correct term is "Climate Change." :-)
