StrongEagle got a reaction from Leigh in Failed Install - Solution (Work Around at Least)
I got the error message that Affinity could not be installed (insufficient privileges). Running as admin made no difference.
So, I looked at the folder tree that the installer created. At the bottom of the tree is "Designer". Somehow, this folder has been installed so that even a computer admin cannot access this folder, not even read permissions. This is apparently why the install fails... the folder is inaccessible except to some unknown owner that we cannot reveal.
The solution is to create a new directory under Program Files/Affinity (I used "Des 2"). When I installed to the directory I made, everything worked fine, and I've had no usage issues since.

StrongEagle reacted to MEB in Can't Update PSD Text Layer?
Hi StrongEagle,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
The trial version is exactly the same as the retail except for the time limit/restriction.
To import text layers as editable text in PSD files, go to Affinity Preferences, General section and tick Import PSD text as text rather than bitmap.
