    Venice27 got a reaction from lynzrand in Photo 1.8 fails to load net runtime error   
    RE: 1.8 crashes - temporary fix
    I won't bore you with the details as to how I arrived at this partial/temporary resolution of the issue.
    By going to AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Photo\1.0\Settings  and changing the file called Fonts.xml to Fonts. xml.backup before running the program, I was able to open the program. All the functionality appears to be present except that using the Artistic Text Tool feature does not function properly. If I select a particular font, the program selects something completely different, although the listing of my fonts appears to be complete. I tried this multiple times with the same result.
    The reason why I have called this a "temporary fix" is because it does not resolve the issue, not even partially, since restarting results in the same crash. The program automatically created a new Fonts.xml file which apparently is the file that is causing the failure of the program to open. Of course, before opening the program again and deleting the Fonts.xml file but leaving the previous Fonts.xml.backup file in place, you can again open the program.
    Perhaps users with fewer fonts may have more success in using the Artistic Text Tool feature, but, in any event, the developers need to address the "crash" issue.
