Your older version will work as long as you own it and have a computer the software will run on.Ĭyberlink provided a patch for Powerdirector 10 and Powerdirector 11, but none so far for PD 9. Nobody forces you to buy the following years Powerdirector. You do not rent Powerdirector, you buy it, you own the software and can use it as long is you wish.

If I buy PD11 and next week you bring out PD12 then I'm f**ed again. I am truly staggered that it is nearly 2020 and this 'new & updated' software does not yet appear to cater for video production for Instagram - the most widely used visual platform in the world.
And everyone else who has an older version of PD. I cannot see how to do it on PowerDirector 17 Ultra, Version. I didn't pay to rent PD9 for a couple of years.Ĭyberlink is just ripping me off. And they don't charge like Cyberlink does for their product. MS provide support for the operating systems for much longer without any additional outlay. I'd expect to get at least 10 years use from it. If Cyberlink aren't going to fix it, will they refund my outlay. Is this leading to someway of being able to fix the problem with PowerDirector 9?

I'm using more and more Open-Source software under Windows and I've also built a spare system to try out Linux.
For all I know Power Director 11 may be a superb product and streets ahead of earlier versions but my view of Cyberlink has been so badly tarnished that I, for one, won't be spending out on any more of their products. Whilst one can understand their need to keep selling product I personally think the lack of support for existing customers is ultimately self-defeating. Cyberlink's failure to provide the patch for earlier versions is blatantly to "encourage" users to shell out their hard-earned cash on the latest version. The unfortunate consumer effectively has his/her arm twisted to buy the latest versions with all the extra bells and whistles, most of which are unnecessary embellishments. every new incarnation of Windows results in applications that will no longer work and need to be "upgraded". Unfortunately the same philosophy is now evident in the software industry. Thanks to the competition from the Far East more modern vehicles are better protected and I'm currently running two 10-year-olds with no problems of body rot or spares. Not many, it's true, but that has more to do with the fact that they've disintegrated into a pile of rust than the inability to obtain spare parts - part of the Western car industry's 'built-in obsolescence' scheme.
