  1. The *.propcols can be very large (some GBs). That can be a problem when storing on LAN or NAS or Clouds. And the accessing from more than one computer simultaniously too. To use the same *.propcols for AP and AD and AP is not a good idea. Some things stored in this files can't be used in all programs and make crashes on starting the applications.

    My setup with no problems on MultiBootSystem since years is:

    2 Hardlinks or Symlinks from the Locations "C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Affinity" and "C:\ProgramData\Affinity" to a different local drive (before installing the Apps)

  2. Make a copy of your Affinity USER Directory --- NOT the Program Directory.

    Then rename the *.propcol files (for assets, raster brushes and vector brushes)  in the submenu      .../Affinity/Photo/1.0/user       and           .../Affinity/Designer/1.0/user    

    Now run one of them.

    Then you can bring back the renamed files one by one and start the program after every restore of a file. So you can check, which file is the bad one.

     

  3. I have tested (in the newest Beta Versions) to copy the *.propcols of BRUSHES, VECTORBRUSHES, FILLS and STYLES. No problems so far. And much less work ;)

    Is this an (official or korrekt) way to do this or can it make problems? Is the format equal in all 3 applications? If YES, it would be nice to have the settings for this in only one directory (userdefined if YES or NO) to "synchronize" the Apps automatically. 

    Only the ASSETS make problems. But maybe is one of them corrupt.
