Applied the update, all went ok, although for first time I can ever remember it asked me stop running my virus checker before continuing.

Also had first serious error whilst applying fx filters. Sent off report and told it’ll be checked by a computer and I wont get a reply. No work lost though after restarting. 😁

Another crash (complete lockup) opening an old xar file. No problem - file opened ok in v11

Is PGD truly 64bit?

Magix only sell the 64 bit versions. Version 15 comes with options to install a 32 or 64 bit program. Version 15 is now only available by buying from other sellers such as Amazon or Ebay. I have just obtained Version 15 by download. The seller couldn't tell me what version it was so he gave it to me providing I report back to him after I have installed it. The download of Xara Web Design Premium version 15.0.0.52288 from November 2017 (107MB) also came with Magix Music Maker (862.26MB) which I installed for review purposes then uninstalled as it is of no use to me.

If you successfully registered the application, you can download the other 32/64 version and use the same registration and have both working at the same time.
