Re: Strange problem with Windows Explorer

Using WinXP Home, I seem to be experiencing a strange problem - when I
start Windows Explorer and attempt to add a new folder or rename a file or
folder, I get an error message with a 'Corel Graphics' window indicating
"The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk
that is not available. Insert the 'Corel Graphics Suite' and click OK". If
I click cancel, I get Error 1706: No valid source disk could be found ...
The Windows Installer cannot continue"

So I am not able to add any folders or rename files at all.

Can someone tell me why this is happening and what would be the best
workaround?

Thanks
I'll tell you what I do when that happens.

Open any folder and select Tools/Folder Options/File Types. Go down that
list and like where you see Folders there is probably Corel indicated to
open them. You can play around down below and lead it to Explorer, etc., and
that can take forever especially if a ton of things are beside Corel that
Corel doesn't do. I just delete those lines or remove them and Windows gets
it straightened out, maybe you need to reboot.

I don't know why that happens ... lousy Windows programmers?
