I do a lot of photo manipulation and can get quite a few layers. Also, and maybe I missed this setting, but Affinity keeps off canvas information when you crop so it's still there even if it's been visually removed.
I'll try updating the drivers and post an update.

Local Drive. Samsung 4 GB SSd.
Not sure what's going on. File size didn't matter. Any adjustment, brightness, levels, took a long time to apply and when it was complete that layer, while still there, would not display. I've tried hardware acceleration on and off. Small files. Big files. Different adjustments. Restarts. Something in my system isn't playing nice. Only programs I run are Spotify and Affinity. Some web browsing. No games. Strong computer. Problems are fairly recent. Was working fine until about two months ago.

I have a good system. 32 GB of Ram. The file is big (13GB) so that's probably it. I'll reduce it as much as I can and see if that helps.

Quick update; Affinity is quickly becoming unusable for me. The save function fails 50% of the time now. Uninstalled and reinstalled the Photo app but that hasn't helped. Often I'll have to open the Task Manager and End Task just to get it to close as it often becomes unresponsive. Not sure what's changed. Frustrating.

Thank you for your help, Dan.
1. Windows 10
2. Affinity 1.9.2.1035
3. Local Disk Samsung SSD
4. Not the first time this has happened. Maybe my file got to large? Also seems more likely to happen the longer the Affinity App has been running. Normally the save process is quick but when this happens the save takes a long time and then something goes wrong at the end in the 'load' portion of the save- I think.
It's not a big deal if I don't get it back. Nothing important, just something I work on for fun and I'll have it recreated (more or less) fairly soon. I was just frustrated yesterday.

File was corrupted during the save process. Would like to get it back if possible. Help please.

corrected information
Installed the new drivers. Testing now.
You brought up the size of the file. I checked earlier versions and they are at 2.5 GB. Then I cropped it so that should have reduced it. The next thing I did is resize the document and that's what exploded the file size. I checked other files and it seems pretty consistent. Most files are around the same 2.5 GB but if I've resized the document it jumps up to 12 or more.
