When CorelDraw X3 gives the error dialog “Required Resource was unavailable” on clicking the New or Open links on the Welcome Page, it probably is because the User’s preferences is corrupt.
To confirm, create a new account, login to that and try opening Coreldraw. If you are able to create a new file, then you need to flush out the Applications, User preferences.
To do so, close Corel first, open C:/Documents and Settings/Application Data and delete the Corel Folder.
When you restart Corel, the preferences will be regenerated and it should open fine.
Update: Coreldraw seemed to show only a few fonts when using the text tool. Disabling “Use only document fonts” in Tools>options>font options fixed that.
Thanks for that. Solved two problems at a time. Corel DRAW connects to its servers and also to some local server. I think they corrupt settings for unregistered versions of program.
Thanks a lot! it was very annoing bit of Corel, though not the only
