Open Slideshow function not working at all.
The "Open" function on my Proshow Gold 5 is not working. I press on Open, File-Open or Control O and nothing happens.
Furthermore, when I open up the program, an empty grey window appears with a header saying "Photodex Document (#395)" - each time I open Proshow Gold 5 the number increases by 1. The only thing appearing in the empty grey window is text reading "/new_show_blank" in the top left hand corner.
Can someone please help me open my shows!
P.S. I've deleted *pcx files only to have them return!
Thanks!

Re: Open Slideshow function not working at all.
Yeah, the .pcx files are simply a cache file created while you are working on a show and contains somewhat (we are not sure exactly what "somewhat" is though) rendered versions of your images, sounds etc. You don't say what version you have, but I would start by going to the install directory for Proshow and delete the proshow.phd file then try opening Proshow again. See if that fixes the problem - that file is a database file that keeps track of all sorts of config info and periodically gets corrupted. When you remove it, it will be re-created again with the normal defaults. The other thing you can do is download and re-install the latest version you are qualified for (you get free upgrades for a year after purchase). Let us know what version you have and if this solves your problem (I have not had that issue, so I am just giving you the normal things that often fix strange happenings).
