I do think that some things are on their way out, but they are just being desperately held on to, but just me speculating again (but then again, I would be biased to this change, so I'm hoping that it's true). Most people that would normally use Windows for work, are now doing more things at home and they tend to run whatever they want to at home. While MS has changed on some things (while I wouldn't get them, you have Edge and Office (not just the web versions) both coming to Linux, so that says something right there) and I think in some ways (especially for the majority of end users (not use niche users)) Windows is loosing importance within MS (just me speculating), I unfortunately think this is just a short term blip, mainly due to various "stay at home" orders for most people. I actually saw an article, I think it was from TechRader that said that Win 10 lost market share, while Linux and Mac both saw a boost. There are some things that I actually like about Win 10, hell even my KDE Neon (main office computer) I have setup to look like Win 10.

If this was Win 7 or 8.1 where they still used the old update schema, I would be more confident, but not with their new bleeding edge schema. It may still work, my starting with DRAW was with X5, so I can't test it, but it may or may not work like it did from 2 yrs ago. That's quite a few updates since then that may have made it harder or not as fool proof. Keep in mind, the workaround that was mentioned towards the end of the thread is 2 yrs old. Normally one would have 2 options, but I know you aren't a fan of 1, so that really leaves you with only 1 option if wanting to keep X3 alive and going and without worrying about if the next computer/update (if the new computer is online) doesn't kill program functionality. But if you get a new computer with Win 10, you are going to have whatever the latest version is at the time and that version (each major update (of which there are typically 2 a year) is only supported for 18 months after released, so we are talking "bleeding edge") may be the one that makes it even harder or impossible to run X3. Now, you did mention that your other computers don't have internet and that helps with those computers. I know when my mom did that, Ps CS6 had some quirks with it, especially with regard to permissions.ĪPIs, DLLs (not quick enough though when it comes to Windows) change or you may need a specific VS runtime that isn't available for later versions etc (why I love portable programs, have one that was made in 1997 and still runs on Win10 and not in compatibility mode).

Now, if I had say Win 7 on the computer and then did an upgrade path, it may have worked, I don't know. I installed it from the original CD though. I do large format graphics on a daily basis. I don't have any problems with it or Windows running it.

When I did a fresh install of X5 on Win 8.1, it as a booger to get it loaded. I've been running Corel Draw 圆 on Windows 10 Desktop computer for about 2 years now and it is the most stable Corel Draw I have yet to run. I remember when I was playing around with Corel with X5 and X6 (do have a copy of X8, but never installed it).
