Answer
Some time ago my copy of Textpad opened very slowly (about 10-15 seconds) and the problem turned out to be that it was looking for a network folder which had been removed.

So, I would check that all of the folders which CorelDraw looks for still exist (templates folder, output folder etc etc).

Apart from that I don't know what to suggest. I presume the files you are opening are on a local drive (not CD or flash disk, which can be slow) and the drive is not heavily fragmented.

Expertise

My main area of continuous expertise with CorelDraw involves setting press advertisements and I have rarely used it to produce complex drawings. However as director of a small company I have amassed a good deal of background knowledge of computers, various printers and networks over the years. When it comes to problem-solving, I have a long history of having nobody to ask but myself and, lately, the internet!
