I'm a very long-time user as well and am also suddenly having login problems 🙁 Waiting to hear what Support has to say!

There is no doubt that the current version of Paint loads EVERY TIME very slowly compared to previous versions. I am now retired, but I pioneered the use of CGI in the Film & TV business back in the 80's by founding CAL VideoGraphics in the UK and therefore have spent a great amount of time with similar products. I love working with the Affinity products and generally no longer use Adobe PhotoShop or Designer.. but the now much slower loading times is definitely something that needs solving! Keep up the good work. Peter Claridge

Thank you for the feedback so far.. Just to update. I do not have a large amount of fonts and even if I did, the loading was very fast prior to .703 update therefore I don't think that's the problem.

"Thank you" to the other users who have followed up with the same problem.. but please can we have a statement from Serif?

I've been a user of both Paint and Design since the very beginning and have always loved using it! However, 1.8.5.703 is "Very Slow" to load. Is anybody else experiencing the same? Thanks, Peter Claridge

November 2017.. SRDx doesn't work for me either (Affinity 1.6.0.89 ) Any feedback would be much appreciated. Peter
