It might have been part of the installation files that were unzipped for you, but you never install them? Do you have a bunch of folders in this area: C:\Program Files (x86)\Corel\Corel PaintShop Pro 2023 Setup Files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my effects, Painter, there is only Particleshop showing. Why does it say painter? Have I missed something in setup? I cannot find anything on line that mentions it being a plugin. Thanks Painter is not a plugin, but somehow, ParticleShop does appear "associated" with it. Just an odd naming convention I think. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jannette Nieuwboer Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 (edited) 29 minuten geleden zei Sherie Dracup: Hallo, ik heb schilderbenodigdheden als stand-alone. Moet het een plug-in zijn. In mijn effecten wordt Painter alleen Particleshop weergegeven. Waarom staat er schilder? Heb ik iets gemist bij het instellen? Ik kan niets online vinden dat vermeldt dat het een plug-in is. Bedankt Dat zijn 2 aparte bestanden met beide hun eigen nummers. Die moet je beide downloaden en activeren. Particle shop komt in je PSP te staan zoals in het voorbeeld wordt weergegeven. Maar schilder is een van heel andere aard. die komt gewoon op je beeldscherm te staan, tussen alle andere bestanden in. Die is veel creatiever. hierin kun je zelf ontwerpen maken, net als in PSP. maar wel gemakkelijker. Graag gedaan.

Thanks Hi Sherie: I think Jannette's link above is for you if you have Painter/Particle Shop plugin. It will guide you to install it so you will have it in the Effects menu under Plugins inside your PSP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is possible, Suzy. I downloaded the installer from a link Carole sent me when I won a random draw. I'll try the one you mentioned and see what happens.

Rene Marker Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 @Cassel In all of the versions of PSP that I have had over the years, there has never been a folder for Setup Files like you have. I have the 2021 and the 2023 versions that you show as having them. You say it is created when you run the "First" installer. I have always just had one installer file to run to install the program.

I always buy directly from Corel and if I remember right, I get an email with links to the different files to download. On my end, I create a folder in my Downloads file and put all the files in there. I still have the folders for older versions of the program. Then I just have to figure out on my own which files need to be installed. They should really put an instruction document that tells what all the files are for in the downloads. I mean, look how many of us didn't realize we had the fonts with our 2023 purchase! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too had not realized I was missing some brushes or preset shapes or something and couldnt do a tutorial. I think Carole, Sue and a few others (I think you helped me too, Rene) got me straight. I always wondered after that if what I downloaded was all I was supposed to do. I often wonder about tech companies, their job is technology...cant they make it idiot proof (or Susan proof in my case). I never really know if got it all. And well, there's the proof I didnt. Its like grocery companies, they send you a link to download this weeks offers. Why dont they just download them, they have access to my card. Why make me waste time logging in when they know I want them anyway. Edited August 15, 2023 by Susan Ewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. it truly did this time for me. I was sent to the Amazon download location on the Corel website and I had to first enter the serial number that came inside the box. Then I got a numerated list of programs downloaded and was told to follow the numbered sequence merely by running one part at a time. There were 9 individual parts to run and the last two were for brushes and fonts. I have not heard back from Corel but did get a ticket number.

Sherie Dracup Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 (edited) Thanks, they are installed already, and both work: painter as a standalone, and particleshop as a plugin. I just wondered if painter should have been a plugin, but Cassel straightened it out for me. I wasn't able to figure out how to reply directly to the actual comment.

When you want to respond to one particular post, highlight the text (all of it or part of it) and then a little bubble will appear at the end of the highlighted section saying "Quote selection". Click on that and it will "quote" it in a post and you just have to type your response. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
