WordPerfect Crash
I have been using WordPerfect X3 in Vista Ultimate, and it was working great for months. Then suddenly, it would not load ... it crashed each time I tried. I searched the Corel site and came up with this very handy tip
Support - Home This can happen if a document in your default workspace for WordPerfect has become corrupted. WordPerfect tries to open the document and hangs or crashed trying to open the corrupted document which is part of the default workspace. To resolve this issue, rename the Corel key in the system registry, to reset the default Workspace for WordPerfect.
Edit the Registry*
Launch the Windows Registry Editor
Browse to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software
