Corel VideoStudio Ultimate 2021 | Video Editing Software with Hundreds of Premium Effects | Slideshow Maker, Screen Recorder, DVD Burner [PC Disc] [Old Version]

Thank heavens I downloaded the trial version. This program crashes constantly. I searched YouTube (lots of people with the same issue), and even tried some recommended fixes. I might have a good day, no crashes, and get some confidence in the product. Then the next day, the program closes itself. I have a fairly new computer, and keep up with my updates. Now Im trying to uninstall. I go through the Settings App, to Corel. If I chose uninstall, it defaults to repair. That is my only choice, repair or back. Ive moved on to Cyberlink Power director. As a Photoshop user, there is a bigger learning curve moving to Power Director, but it hasnt crashed in the two weeks Ive been using it. Still unable to uninstall Corel.

Installed easily and comes with great tutorials. Was able to start using immediately and created a video with sound and moving slides within an hour.

First of all – this software takes FOREVER to install. I’m talk over an hour or more. This is not going to be a “pop in the DVD and it’s done”. You will need an internet connection for some of the install. I found this the hard way when my computer ended up on AIRPLANE mode. And, even when it did connect, it was SLOOOOW. Then, no less than five times did I set a “setup error” pop-up. I even ran the repair, then I had to just uninstall the software. But, that was not easy with the software. I ended up deleting the files from my computer manually. That STILL didn’t get the software deleted. So, I tried the uninstall tool – again, an error. Popped disc out and popped it back in. Maybe it was a bad read. After popping the disc in my drive began going what I’d think was 200mph. Tried the REPAIR tool … again … Got six (6) SETUP error windows. The tool finished and closed. So, in the first 60+ minutes – nothing accomplished. And, this was on a BRAND NEW, OUT-OF-THE-BOX, 4 day old computer. It could have been a BAD disc. After all, if it was my drive, it wouldn’t have read the disc to begin with. I can’t attest to the features of the software since it couldn’t be installed. I’ve always had issues with software from COREL, and thought after 18 years it would be better – not this go around.

I ordered Corel VideoStudio 2021. The installation on my laptop worked fine but when I attempted to open the application, the splash screen would appear but the application would not open. Ive contacted Corel support three times to troubleshoot this but all they have me do is to uninstall the application, then reinstall it, then try to open it again. This has never worked - the same problem remains. It doesnt appear that I can return this software so I have no way to get my money back for this software.

This is the easiest video editor out there, and its great for the money. The 2021 version is the best, although you will still have some crashes. I tried 2022 but it was the most unstable. Biggest downfall is that Corels tech support is useless.

It seems like every day that I use this product some new bug or issue finds a way to annoy me. Todays was clicking on the center text icon more than once caused my text to move at a 45 degree angle up and to the left off my screen with each click. Ive had issues with audio being marked at one time point and then when playing back it no longer lines up as originally shown. Its relatively easy to use but in hindsight I should have purchased a different product.

Software did not work…

I have never experienced a piece of software so hard to use. This thing could probably edit your videos and make you a sandwich, BUT good luck figuring out how! I just dont want to spend 10 hours learning how to simply clip unwanted pieces of MP4 videos and stitching back together into a seamless edited video. Completely useless user guide. NO INDEX !!! Sorry I wasted my money.

2021 is a horror Sure it doesn’t non stop crash like 2019 but it’s just a horrible mess. Glitchy, plus rendering issues And “best yet”, projects created on 2021 won’t open on earlier versions so you can’t even take them back to a different older version I’d love to return to the 2018 version Absolutely not worth the money

Bought this (Corel VideoStudio Ultimate 2021) in spring of 2022 from Amazon. Tried a number of times to install it. Contacted tech support via chat numerous times and got at least 3 different techs. It seems that tech support comes from some business other than Corel. Tried both disc and download versions numerous times. Always encountered 3 or 4 error messages along the way but installation continued until the 4th or fifth error message. Then installation stopped. Error Messages gave no details or codes - only said to contact tech support. During installation of both disk and download my AVG antivirus informed me that the program was trying to install the Win32/Heri virus. I told the program to ignore (not download) the virus although later I allowed the program to download it thinking maybe that was why the Corel program wouldnt install. After contacting Corel we started cycling through the same 4 or 5 solutions. None of them worked. In the meantime I kept receiving emails asking if the problem had been solved. When I clicked on the reply button IMBEDDED IN THEIR EMAIL it went to a website which stated that the website was no longer in use but gave no further instruction!!!! GOODBYE COREL. I LOVED YOU AND 3 OF YOUR PROGRAMS FOR YEARS BUT YOU HAVE TURNED INCOMPETENT. FOUR MONTHS OF FUTILE EFFORT, A PROGRAM WITH A VIRUS AND A DEADEND WEBSITE IS ENOUGH!
