With the roll out of Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher for Windows version 2.0.4, Serif are making available Unsandboxed installers (also known here as MSI/EXE installers). These installers will be made for all future V2 release builds going forward and will autoupdate from within the application (checking for updates on each run, like the sandboxed version does)
Serif do not recommend or support mixtures of MSIX and MSI on the same computer. You should only use either all sandboxed or all unsandboxed, particularly if you have more than one Affinity V2 application installed.
You can now download (and install) Windows unsandboxed MSI/EXE installer files (as well as Windows sandboxed MSIX installer files) from these store pages.
1. From the V2 Universal Download page
Click on the words "Looking for Windows MSI installers?"
2. Individual V2 application Download pages, found here

3. LICENCES AND DOWNLOADS pages in your account

Bummer. I was hoping because CraftArtist was a Serif pgm, there might be a work-around to use the boatload of cool image brushes in Designer.
Thank you though.
