Title: Make a previous version of CorelDRAW the default?
Post by: Frog on January 04, 2013, 08:08:23 PM

Possible? How to? Is there any way to override the apparent newly appointed top dog? I have both X4 and X6 on the machine.

In Windows Explorer, right click any .cdr file and select Open with from the menu. At the bottom of the next popup menu, select Choose default program and find and select Corel X4.

Thanks. It was that "Always Use the selected program for this type of file" option to click that I was looking for. One of those computer tidbits that I only need every few years, so it goes away.

You are very welcome. I can't tell you how many of those types of precious Windows tidbits escape my brain on a daily basis. :-[

With computers and me, it's use it or lose it.
I can't calculate how many hours of tutes, actual classes in both software and hardware all go out the window (so to speak) when not practiced often enough to keep them in the front of my head.
