Downloading Corel's Migration Manager
Corel developed a migration manager that will backup (yes, I said backup) and migrate your customization from WP 6.1, 7, 8 and 9 to WP10. Just to be clear, you can use this tool to backup your customizations, even if you have no intention of migrating them to WP10. Download Corel's Migration Manager.
Downloading WPLOOK from the WP10 Software Developers Kit
You can now download the WPLOOK application separately from the Software Developers Kit. Download the exe file here. The README file is here.
Extracting Selected Files from WP Service Packs
Thanks to C-Tech Charles Rossiter, for his discovery of "extract mode". If you run the update program with the /x switch, it starts the Wise Installation, which allows you to select which files you want to extract. For example, choose Start, Run, then browse to locate and select the service pack .EXE file. Add a space and "/x" after the filename, then choose OK.
Configuring Quick View Plus to Work with Internet Explorer
When using Internet Explorer, you won't be able to open a WordPerfect document for viewing in Quick View Plus. Instead, Internet Explorer starts WordPerfect and opens the document. TID 206435 on the knowledge base explains how to configure Quick View Plus to work with WordPerfect documents in Internet Explorer.
Installing WPO2002 without Internet Explorer 5.5
Contrary to popular belief, you can install WordPerfect Office 2002 without Internet Explorer 5.5. You'll give up Digital Signatures and VBA functionality, but if you really, really don't want IE 5.5 on your system, that's the price you have to pay. TID 206479 explains how to do a custom install and shows you which components to deselect.

Removing WP when it isn't in Control Panel
ZDTips tip: The Corel WordPerfect Suite doesn't always show up in the list of applications in Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel. Why? Because Add/Remove Programs is linked to the file, remove.exe, which must be found on the hard drive. Since remove.exe isn't copied over to your hard drive during a standard installation, you're likely to run into this problem. First, insert the Corel CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive. Choose Start, Find, Files or Folders. Type remove.exe in the Named field, select the CD-ROM drive letter from the Look in drop-down list, then choose Find Now. When the search is complete, double-click remove.exe, then follow the prompts to remove the Corel Suite applications.
