When trying to open cdr file on Corel Draw, the following message appears:
Product installation unsuccessful, please reinstall (Error 38).
Anyone else having this issue?

    With an error message that generic and this being a GameSalad forum, I'm not sure you've going to find much help from this community. Have you tried posting on a Corel Draw forum such as this one?

    The problem is caused by the service called: "Protexis Licensing V2 service"

    All you need to do is enable that service before opening coreldraw. All you have to do isSTART>;RUN>;services.msc OR
    Right click My computer; select manage ; in the tree view, select services and applications, then expand hirachy select services
    find the name with Protexis Licensing V2 and start that service. Change to automatic.
    Thats all now you are done. No more installation error.
    Reboot
    If you are still experiencing the issue after applying this fix you can try CorelDraw Fix Toolbox
