I bought Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 10 and still have XDPXv10 installed but neither would run.
I asked xara what to do. Little of use came back.
Now, by chance, I have the trick.
Ensure all other Xara Desktop applications (XDA) are now running and Run as Administrator either of these first before launching later versions.
I believe any XDA v11 on do not have this niggle.

P.S. I hold onto these as they are perpetual licences and I might be able to offer further TG advice. Mad I know.
never had an issue with 11 or 12 - but i only have 15.1 latest, not 16.n
Do you means you can run v10s all right with v15.1 loaded or you don't have v10s? If the latter, I was trying to advise that co-running of v11s all the way up to v16 is all OK.Quote:

It is funny finding all those half-finished projects just waiting.
It is possible to set up a Shortcut, even on the Taskbar, to Run as Administrator.

I was replying to this:
which I took to be a non-definitive statement, so just saying for the recoprd that I had no issues with 11/12 ;)Quote:

Now that's what I call a User Interface.Quote:

For those thinking about using Xara Xtreme 5 Silver, it is a 32-bit installation (as are X3D7 and Xara Photo Graphic Designer 10).

My Xara Photo & Graphic Designer 10 runs just fine in Windows 10, although it's been a while since I used it. I normally use V16.3, However If I have to reinstall 15.0 then I will revert back to 10 anyway.
This is what worries me. People seem resigned to getting a bad deal through Xara that they just accept it and go back to what works.Quote:

TGers say they wouldn't write a book with it (GaryP has, with caveats) Numbering Google/SEO says it doesn't like your websites much Adaptive Illustrators say the graphical tools have gone stale Mesh Xara says it's mostly for vector work so photo tools are in the background Tracer Typographers can only dream ...
... we get SmartShapes.
