Okay, I thought I could just click on an EXE file.... LOL ;-( After researching I followed instructions. Still not installing! Why in the world would you make this so difficult? Questioning my purchase now and definingly not recommending Affinity 2
Reply back with a video tutorial or a link that works showing how to install, Thank you Use PowerShell Instead:
You can also install MSIX packages via PowerShell by opening PowerShell as Admin and then using the following command, presuming you have downloaded the MSIX to your Downloads folder:
Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Users\MyUserName\Downloads\affinity-designer-2.0.0.msix" -DependencyPath "https://aka.ms/Microsoft.VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx"
