I Uninstalled KPT Collection 7 without problems and tried to re-Install in Photoshop CS4 32-bit folder but at installation process I received the message that Installation Process Cannot Install UNinstaller Program for KPT 7 and installation process cancelled with Windows 7... I have tried to install KPT 7 some more times and received that message and process cancelled, But on the third time I could make installation and KPT-7 installed succeful... and presented to use in Photoshop CS4 32-bit version, but... But as I wish to open and use KPT Plugin in Photoshop CS4 each time from me it is required to enter serial number again...

Stupid Corel support - no one more Corel software to purchase. No email direct support, no help.

KPT Collection and many many other plugins do not work in CS4 64 Bit. The plugins have to be rewritten for 64 Bit and few plugin manufacturers have yet done so.  Considering Vista wasn't even officially supported by the KPT set, I am not surprised you are struggling with installation on Win 7. 

I have successfully installed and run the KPT tools on Win Vista and Win 7 both 64 bit but only the 32 bit version of CS4 will run them.

To get around the problem.

Launch PS CS4 in XP Compatiblity mode as an administrator.

Invoke the plug in. Enter your serial number.

Close CS4 

Reopen in Normal Compatibility mode and it should be fine. 

I posted instructions for this on the CNews server two years ago but I see it has been cleaned off.

Good luck.

I installed KPT Collection in PS 32-Bit version folder but UNinstaller for KPT not installed and KPT 7 not listened in Windows Program Manager. Befor I installed KPT 7 to PS 64-bit folder but not worked - and its removed without problems.

I am having the identical problem as Martes, but I am trying to use my KPT Collection with Painter 11.  Should I try to follow these steps with Painter?  Thanks for your help
