So just for the reference of anyone who may have been interested in my PSPX installer, it seems what I have is pretty much useless since it doesn't appear to work. I'm guessing that has to do with the activation servers being dead. But I pointed it to my PSP 8 installation and then tried to launch PSP X and it said something about the PSP X being corrupt or illegal and it won't launch. And it seems the CD I have for PSP X requires the serial key when installing it, and the serial I have is an upgrade key that requires a previous version of PSP to be installed. Trying to mount the PSP 7 ISO from VirtualBox also gave me an error. I also loaded up my Win 10 VM and tried installing all 4 versions, PSP 7, 8, 9, and X. Maybe Windows 10 or 7-Zip, whichever is adding the option to mount the disc images, isn't quite as useful as DaemonTools, which 4wd says worked with it perfectly. After asking about it here, I tried downloading the PSP 7 ISO and I also get the error that it is corrupted. Other than that, it works perfectly fine and is still my favorite image editor. Some of them that used to work well under other versions of Windows, will not work on Win10, and there's nothing you can do about it, since all of them are no longer supported by their developers, and rarely would they ever offer any help to Paintshop Pro users even when they did support them, as they were written for use with old, outdated versions of Photoshop, not Paintshop Pro. The 3rd, most annoying quirk is related to 3rd party filters and plugins. Otherwise, I'd recommend setting automatic rollup in preferences: so you have to click next to the close (X) button to lock open or rollup, as shown on this screenshot. Win10 won't show you the rollup buttons that should be on them, but they are still there, invisible. The 2nd, more annoying quirk relates to the small pop-up windows for tool options, layer palette, overview, etc. So, all you'd be doing is trading one type of message to click away, for another. Running it in compatibility mode will get rid of the error messages, but you'll still have to click away a prompt to allow changes to your computer, every time you run it. Same thing.ignore and close the messages. You might also see one when you try to close it. This has been an issue with PSP7, since WinXP. Just dismiss them and proceed on to using the app. It happens once or twice, as soon as the program launches. I choose not to run it in compatibility mode, as it prevents one from being able to make screenshots of the program UI.įirst, you will see an error message that looks something like this, each time you run it. You could optionally choose to run it in compatibility mode, but that will only fix one issue, and introduce another. I have run it on 5 computers with Win10, so Paintshop Pro 7 will work, but there are a few quirks with it.
