  1. Paint Shop Pro 7 locks up when searching folders


    Just a few days ago Paint Shop Pro 7 started going non-responsive when ever I go to open a file. All I do is click on open, and then try to search folders for a file. The program goes non responsive as soon as I try to switch folders. I have to go into Task Manager and stop running it everytime I try to use it.Also when I try to run Paint Shop Pro 9, it never opens now.. It shows up as running under Task Manager, but the program itself never starts up.Can someone help me with this as I really like PSP 7 and use it about everyday.

    :)

  2. Is Jasc Paint Shop Pro Version 7 compatible with Windows 10?

    I see that "Paint Shop Pro Anniversary Version 7" is listed as compatible with Windows 10. But it does not specify Jasc, and I don't know if my version is "Anniversary". Can anyone confirm that the Jasc Paint Shop Pro version 7 is compatible
    too?

    Is Jasc Paint Shop Pro Version 7 compatible with Windows 10?

    This just started happening to me today. I updated to Windows 10 when it was released and Paint Shop Pro worked fine with it. Today I tried to open the program and I get "Browse for Folder. Please choose a user directory." but I don't know what this means.
    Paint Shop Pro 7 locks up when searching folders :( Nothing helps when I click anything anyway. Is there a fix for this? I have other programs but I prefer PSP7 for photos. Thanks.

    Is Jasc Paint Shop Pro Version 7 compatible with Windows 10?

    I use "Jasc Paint Shop Pro Version 7" and yes, it works on Windows 10. The only thing that doesn't work for me on version 7 is the "Help" files. Each time I try to open those Help files, Windows will open up this web page:

    Error opening Help in Windows-based programs: "Feature not included" or "Help not supported"

    I have NOT downloaded the "WinHlp32.exe" file because it doesn't state on Microsoft's website whether or not it's compatible with Windows "10." Perhaps someone else here can tell us whether that file will also work on Windows 10.
