Quote I have seen similar problems in the past. The hard drive was only ¼ full and going bad. It keep reallocating new sectors to replace the bad ones it find. Everything was slow, slow, slow. Replaced the drive to solve the problem. That was the boot drive in my HTPC.


Definitely not the harddrive. I have no issues with speed. I am running all software on a M.2 drive. It is super fast. I can edit, but I cant create a DVD or save. Absolutely no issues with speed

My first response included all the DxDiag info. They responded like they didnt even look at it. I have recommended this product to friends and family for YEARS. Could be windows 10. Doesn't explain why it was working a week ago though. Seriously paying for phone support is a slap in the face to paying customers!

Could you tell me how to go about getting a refund for a product that doesnt work and is not supported in my country?


Well it must be something in windows. Because I just reinstalled pd14 and same crap different hour.

I'll be sure to post what I figure out, if I do figure anything out. All I know at this point is after 3 days uninstalling and reinstalling changing little things is that I am tired, and will not make the deadline.

I'm sorry that you're having so many issues. I really appreciate you making the screen recording and showing all the problems you highlighted.

Based on what you've described and recorded, it's very clear that PD isn't installed correctly, but at this point I don't think that simply uninstalling and reinstalling are going to help. There may also be some underlying issue with Win10, depending on what's happened since you got your new system. I'm concerned with Windows' responses to your folder and project saving section as those are all Windows dialog boxes, they're not part of PD.

Cyberlink tech support often takes a couple days to respond, and we're on Monday eve after a big Chinese new year week. Of the 3 items you listed, the one that I see as most significant is that the folder where PD is installed doesn't exist. That could be a Windows permission issue or drive corruption or a badly mangled PD install, but it will take some time and effort to figure this out.

I don't blame you if you want to throw in the towel at this point, but if you want to try and move forward the best thing you can do is to follow the steps listed in the Read Me Before Posting thread and attach the results of the DxDiag test. That will give us some idea of the condition that Win10 reports of itself.

Another thing to try is a system file check, which can be run from an Administrator-level command prompt. This will only take a few minutes and will give you valuable info on the state of your new system's health. Steps are in the MS article.

Next steps will be based on what the dxDiag test shows and the outcomes of running the DISM and SFC commands.

Support has been no support at all!

I just uninsstalled and reinstalled and it is MUCH worse. about to reinstall for the 5th time.
I have removed all cyberlink software from my couputer. A couputer that is less that 3 weeks old...
I can not...
1. Change settings
2. Save projects
3. Burn Disks

All it will say when I try to change a setting is "Cyberlink\CyberLink Drive\PowerDirector does not exist"

I am sure there are more issues.

Upgraded a week ago from 14, really regreating it!

Has anyone else had these issues?

PowerDirector 17
Running on Windows 10
i9 9900k
32 gb Ram
1080 ti
