Find your filter folder, burn a copy, add the filter folder to your PSP plugin folder... should be G2G... that's the only thing I could find on Google...

In order to install the software into Paint Shop Pro (PSP) X2, run the installer indicating the following typical install location: C:\Program Files\Corel\Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2\

After running the installation PSP X2 needs to be setup to find the newly installed software plug-ins. To assist you in this process please fellow the steps below:

1. Restart PSP X2

2. Click on File >Preferences >File Locations...



3. A dialog box appears:

a. On the left hand side click on plug-ins.

b. Ensure the box next to "Enable plug-ins..." is checked.

c. Click on the Add button.

d. Navigate and select the Nik Software folder located at:
C:\Program Files\Corel\Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2\

e. Click OK, then OK again to go back into Corel Paint Shop Pro X2.



4. Exit out of PSP X2 and then reopen it. Open an image, then click on Effects >Plugins and you should see a Nik Software entry followed by the Plug-Ins you installed such as Color Efex Pro 3.0. Please note that the Nik Selective Tool (Paint, Erase, Fill, Clear) is not compatible with this product and only works with Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Photoshop Elements.
