I downloaded PD 13 Ultra this week and notice that I am missing several titles, effects, etc..

I installed all of the components in sequence (took 2 times), but it appears as though the software if working as designed, sans the numerous special effect files.

Suggestions?

Hi fitcrew83 -

It would help to know which tiles & effects you're missing.

This post shows what should be included in the Contents Packs - http://forum.cyberlink.com/forum/posts/list/40724.page#210368 - though there are differences with the "Deluxe" version.

Cheers - unfitcrew53

The Essential and Premium packages, installs almost all the effects that came with PD13.

Other Packages, Download and Custom effects, PD adds automatically. AMD-FX 8350 / 8GB DDR3
SSD SUV400S37240G / 2-HD WD 1TB
AMD Radeon R9 270 / AOC M2470SWD
Windows 7-64 / PD16 Ultimate

Thank you to both of you.

I realize that neither Essentials or Premium are installed. (I thought they did on the 2nd attempt.)

When I run the installer for Essentials, I'm receiving the following message..."Required installation file is missing (7z.exe)".

I downloaded the software on the 26th and that was a completely new install as I have not installed PD previously. What is my recourse to obtain the missing file(s)?

Thanks!

That's a tricky one because - within the installer files - there are various sub-folders, many of which contain zip files called "SupportFiles.7z" - that's probably what the alert is referring to.

But which one???

Maybe you'll have to re-download the installers - sorry.
