I have had the same problem. I restored my computer to the date prior to installing the trial version. That took care of the definition problem. Now I have an error message on the Power Director portion saying that a file is missing "trialmgr.exe". The trial version worked just fine. I have redownloaded the purchased program twice to no avail. I saw that this problem has been reviewed by Cyberlink and I needed to contact support. 2 days later and still no answer. I really need to get some work on myvideos done. HELP!

hi, I got the same problem, just wonder anyone get the reply yet? how to remove or uninstall them completely manually?

I had the same problem which throught trail and error managed to solve and I am now using power Director 7 happly. This is what I did:-
1 I unistall all cyberlink products from my computor including Photo now.
2 I deleted all reistry entries pertaing to cyberlink softeware,
3 I deleted all file and floder in C drive.
Finally I reinstalled pwoer director and the rest of the cyberlink software I deleted in step one

I hope some of you out there will find this helpful.

Hi James,

You cannot install the PowerDirector component only, from DVD Suite, it is necessary to install the complete suite then uninstall the items not required

I get the error when I'm trying to UNINSTALL the program... so, what do I do?

I am currently using PD V7. While working on a project I recieved an "operation failed" error. I can't update the timeline with any information without reciveing the above error.


I try uninstalling the program however it will not allow me to. When attempted I recieve "Product Definition File is lost".

This is the same problem I'm having... How did you all solve it? None of the suggestions above helped.
I have tried every suggestion on the net.
I can't believe this has been going on for 4 or 5 years.

I'm using PD V9
I paid for this software and I shouldn't have these problems.

HELP PLEASE!

Hi

Please can you put a name on your post.

Also, try posting this as a new topic on the PD9 forum page as this page is for PD8 and previous versions.

Good luck
