Sorted.. I updated the FastPictureViewer Codec Pack and now everything is working! Thanks again Mark.

I do indeed.. To test this out I installed AP on a spare (old) test machine and it launched just fine. I then installed FPV, rebooted then tried to run AP again - 'dong' same error that I get on my main machine. Well done, Mark you found the conflict. :) Unfortunately this is for Serif to find a work around for as I cannot remove FPV from my main machine. Thanks though, now at least we know where the conflict arises from..

I re downloaded affinity-photo-public-beta.exe and installed again. No change, same problem as before. Seems that Photo.exe is experiencing a problem with the .net framework. I tried compatibility mode, no joy. Never had a problem with other apps since upgrading to Windows 10. Looks like I'll not be able to use Affinity Photo.

Nope, Affinity Photo not working either. I get the Windows error sound only, nothing launches. (Crash reports in my original post here ► https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/27758-affinity-photo-system-crash/&p=135054 ) I have a malware free machine with an up-to-date Windows 10 Pro. No other software I use has any problems. I was hoping the crash reports helped, but no reply since Nov 11 on these.

Anything??

Windows 10 Pro 64 bit / 16 Gb ram / Radeon 5700 series / Sandisk 240Gb SSD Plus / Bit Defender AV I'm experiencing similar, except I don't even get the splash screen - just the Windows error 'dong' sound. I attach two crash reports. CrashReports.zip

Andy, My CrashReport .dmp file attached (\AppData\Roaming\Serif\Affinity Designer\1.0 (Beta)\CrashReports) Hope this helps? dump.zip

No. The UE dialogue is the first and only thing that shows. BTW: I run dual monitors (extended desktop), if that helps at all.

Thanks for 2nd Beta, still no joy here - program won't run at all, Unhandled Exception. W10 Pro

Cheers, Chris.

Can't even get to try AD once. Launching just causes an Unhandled Exception right off the bat. Tried running as admin, same thing.
