Re: Corel Photo Paint Version 7.0 compatible with Windows 10?

Thanks, but I just got a new Dell Inspiron 3880 PC on Windows 10 on Monday morning, and I've discovered that I can't get Corel Photo-Paint 7.0 to run on it.  I've tried looking for the installation program, and the only apparently possible one that I could find was "Photopnt.exe" in the "Draw Select" folder, but when I click on it, I get the following error or failure message -

Could not open \corelapp.ini.

Please check Key:

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Corel\CORELDRAW\7.0"
Value: "ConfigDir" in the Registry.

Could anyone PLEASE help?  I would tremendously appreciate any sincere efforts to help - THANKS very much!
