I have been using PhotoDraw 2000. Today it will not work; the last thing I did really was ScanDisk and Defrag. I now get the message: Unable to start this application. I rebooted, hoping that would correct it. No change. I ran McAfee which says I am ok, and Spybot also gave me a clean bill of health. Scandick and Defrag won't affect PhotoDraw like this, or will it? All the other programs, both Microsoft and genealogy programs run just fine. Can anyone suggest a clue please, or even how to correct this? I don't like reinstalls, but is it my only option? Thank you.
