the above fix actually didn't work but I FINALLY FIXED IT FOR GOOD turns out it was actually caused by corrupted drivers for my graphics card. to fix this i uninstalled the software(affinity photo) then download the amd bug fix tool and ran it in safe mode. then i reinstalled my amd driver update tool and voila worked like a charm

i have this exact same problem. the only time affinity photo will open correctly is right after i just restarted the computer. if i wait for 3 or 4 minutes the platorm update issue appears. my gpu is an gigabyte rx 560

hey i downloaded some windows updates and it fixed the problem. i didn't have to gamble on the tweaking site.

haven't tried this yet will post back with results

to be completely honest, i don't remember. i just copy pasted without thinking

just tried all of the below, i haven't restarted my computer yet, but it didn't work immediately

its annoying, right now im just keeping it open all the time after i restart the computer as a solution. i hope they address this in a future patch.

i just tried the uninstall, then run the exe as admin, and that didn't work either

tried running as admin, didn't work, im only running stock windows security, but i guess i can try turning it off and reinstalling. ill let you know how that goes.

tried the first thing didn't work, haven't uninstalled yet.

tried this, didn't work

when i bought the software, it worked flawlessly, but since 1.9, after i restart my computer. it allows my to use affinity one time, and if i close it and try to reopen the program it gives me the message below. if i restart my computer it, lets open the program once, then after i close it, it tells me i need an update for windows 7 sp1, even though i have a legit copy of windows 10. can anyone help? ive uninstalled the program and reinstalled it and it hasn't helped.
