was working fine for a couple of years... until a few moments ago. I interrupted its processes and now when I open it.... it only shows the opening banner and then closes. I tried opening it from the file location not the desktop still with no luck.

I tried opening projects and the banner shows and then it closes.. it is not running in the task manager.

please advise on what else to try/do to get my program back.

thank you

Jim

You program is fine, but what likely happened is that your project file (with a .PHD extension) may have become corrupted. The PhotoDirector forum has an extensive list of solutions to most problems already, and in fact two of the most recent posts were from users experiencing the same basic issue as you.

I suggest you look at the one called "Accidental Deletion and Recovery" to start.
