ChrisON got a reaction from tuangd in Extremely disappointed that this installs as an "App" and not regular software program
Same problem with DXO Photolab - can no longer export a developed raw file directly to Affinity. Big step backward for me. If there is no workaround for this I'll probably get the refund within the 14 day window and find something else to use.

Hi David,
No, that doesn't work as PL insists on a full path to the .exe file. The .bat file you suggested works but you still can't link it successfully in PL - unless I'm missing something obvious.
I'm using Windows 11 and PL 6: the C:\Program Files\WindowsApps folder - where the 'real' photo.exe resides is locked down - you can't even browse to it successfully - only way l could find it was via Task Manager and open the file location for the Affinity Photo process (Affinity has to be running to do this).

OK, found a way that actually works.
Open the msix installer file with something like 7Zip
Extract the contents to a different folder (I used d:\AP2 on my PC)
Run photo.exe - you'll need to reregister it with your Affinity ID
I can link the photo.exe file in DXO PL and the export works as it should.
