[Cannot open any file]

unfortunately my Windows10 installation crashed completely and I had to reinstall Windows10 and all the software, tools, drivers from scratch. Then I had problems with a new VST synth plugin, which doesn't show up the GUI. The developer asked me to switch to internal graphics, instead of the NVidia Graphics card (GeForce GT555M) and it worked. Then I installed all my Affinity software (current versions) and still I couldn't open any file or create a new file. I hopefully switched to internal graphics and I'm able to open files now 🙂 Obviously this graphics driver doesn't like some apps...

Hope this helps...
Best regards,
Joerg

Still doesn't work for me 😥 Not in Affinity Photo, not in Designer and not in Publisher (1.8.2) Changed internal graphic processing to the GeForce card (Notebook GT555M) and updated all drivers. This is the only graphics suite, that won't work on my notebook. Strange...

...to be honest, I'm waiting until there are versions, you can really work with. So actually I don't work with any Affinity software. Hopefully in the near future...

Hi Dan,

you're right!! Same problem with current version of Affinity Designer (I have a registered version). Drivers are up to date. I often try new software demos, especially graphic tools and plugins, music software, VST plugins... What do you think, what kind of program could make the trouble? Something, that starts up with Windows10?

Thanks very much!

Hi Dan,

the renderer is "Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000". I uninstalled using the microsoft tool, then reinstalled a fresh copy in a new directory. Nothing changed...

Because noone else seems to have this problem, I think about picking up my computer, opening the window and...

Hi Dan,

I can't even create a new file  Strange, that obviously nobody else does have this problem...

Your questions: I used the current version .exe file for setup. All files are on my harddrive. Filetypes are mainly JPG, PNG, TIFF (RGB and CMYK)

Thank you!!

Hi Dan,

sorry for the late feedback, I'm very busy at the moment...

I resetted the software and then tried to open a jpg file from my harddrive. Now there was a message in the upper right corner "loading 1 document" (translated). A few seconds later, the app crashed and I was asked to send the dump. So I did...

Then I tried to run it as administrator. Same... not even a message in the top right corner...

Then I uninstalled the software, cleaned registry, restarted the computer and reinstalled the software. Still not able to load any file...

Hope that helps...

Best,
Joerg

Hi Dan C,

thanks very much for your help! To shortly answer your questions: All 3 of these cases and there is no info about loading...

When I try to close AffinityPhoto, a message appears, saying that one file is still in loading progress and closing the program is not possible until all files are fully loaded. Badly translated from German

Hi,

I'm working on Windows10 Pro and I simply cannot open any image file in Affinity Photo (current version, German). Nothing happens but the cooler gets louder sometimes. This happens since, I think, version 1.6x. All former versions worked well... very strange... any idea?

Thank you!!

Thanks Alfred :) :) :) !! Good to hear...

[Black White Screen]

...thanks for all your replies!

 

@Mark: Yes, I noticed the slider, but it's as you said - I would love a light grey scheme...

@Willabong: Sure, I heard of that... I will miss some of the features, especially the rostrum animation. Hope v8 will be still supported for some time...

Hi,

 

just played around with the beta... How can I change the white-on-black screen layout to black-on-white? I hate this...

 

P.S. Would like to have DrawPlus9 :-(

 

Thanks!!
