I too have this issue, and was wondering why the 'New Update Available' popup kept showing every time I opened Designer. The install page recommends to install the MSIX version, so that's what I did; perhaps the older version was the MSI/EXE version. It would be very helpful if the update process looked for the other installation and asked if you wished to uninstall it, or, at the very least, made users aware that two versions were now installed so that we could understand what's causing this double up and/or popup.

Completely agree. I'm subscription saturated.

Windows 11 Compatibility

Thanks for your reply Patrick. I've had the 22000.194 co_release build installed for a few days now and Designer seems to work just fine. -

Photo Management software
747fan replied to Lesley@Bramley's topic in Pre-V2 Archive of Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
+1 vote for the photo management component. Since digital photo's became 'a thing', storing, filing, naming, searching, tagging, and browsing photo's has become an evil downside. I cannot be the only person on the plant who remembers old school photo albums with their generic landscape covers! I knew exactly which album to open to find the photo I wanted. Now days, I have USB sticks, external hard drives, and a Synology NAS, and recalling where a particular photo is, is like navigating a complex city at night in a sea fog; frustrating. On my 'there must be a creative bone in here somewhere' journey of learning to draw, I recently discovered Affinity Designer for iPad, and bought it, and have also now bought the Windows version also. Photo management software is an absolute necessity for people with more than a hanful of photo's, and I ask @Serif introduce a component for this. I ask for these (probably rudimentary) features as a starting point, and I'm sure others will have additional feature requests: Search and sort by: name date Geographic location (where files contain such exif data) people tags (manual, but automatic would be a nice feature also such as in Photoshop Elements Organizer) Processes: Facial recognition (humans, and animals if possible. Cameras now have animal eye detection!) Duplicate file finder based on exif data (duplicately named files will be captured by name sort) View: exif data Well, that's enough for this brain dump, I hope my thoughts and comments help in our quest. Cheers! -

Hi Everyone, Jason here from Sydney, Australia. Newbie to design. I struggle to find a creative bone in my body, so far I've just come up with a bag of elbows, but I'm giving it a crack. I have always wanted to learn to draw, and do my own thing, so about 18 months ago I got an iPad and Pencil, and started at the beginning, with ProCreate. I had never heard of rasters! However, I researched and learned basic skills, and set up a RedBubble page with some rudimentary designs, and stylised photos that I'd taken over the last 3 decades as a starting place. About 2 months ago I started to delve more into the instructional videos on SkillShare, and hear the word 'vectors' for the first time. Seeing a fantastic new way to create, I immediately switched over to Vectornator. Well it would have been around 2 weeks later I heard one of the instructors mumble some other software name that he recommended, and because the subtitles didn't make any sense at all, I reached out and asked for the name; my connection to Affinity Designer was born Well, I love it, man do I love it. What a fabulous piece of kit. Now I feel like I have a product for the long haul, with such room to learn and grow and catch up with all that Designer can do. I want to absorb all that I can so that I can make this a past time, and maybe, just maybe earn enough out of it to not have to work full time anymore. Anyway, thanks for reading. Cheers.
