[Two versions of Affinity Photo on desktop]

Thanks for the replies.  After posting this, I saw the one about installing a short cut.  I guess everything is normal. Uninstalled V1, V2 loaded fine. 

[Two versions of Affinity Photo on desktop]

Hello -  I purchased and downloaded version 2.0 soon after it was available.  Somehow, it didn't replace version 1.10 with version 2.0 on my desktop, but installed along with the existing version. The desktop shortcut goes to version 1.10, I use the Start button to get to the 2.0 ikon.  If I use windows file explorer to find an image and click on it, it loads version 1.10.  I don't want both versions, what's the best way to clean this up?

Windows 11.

[Unsharp Mask and LAB L channel]

Thank you for your responses, I will work smarter, not harder.

[Unsharp Mask and LAB L channel]

I stumbled across this website that promotes the idea of doing your sharpening only on the L channel in LAB mode - Sharpening in LAB Color - Photo.net - Articles

When using Unsharp Mask, I've always set the Blend Mode to Luminosity, is this essentially the same thing? It seems a lot simpler.

[soft proof adjustment layer freezes AP]

I would like an outside lab print an image I have in AP.  I don't have a good color printer.  I downloaded several ICC paper profiles from the lab, right-click on a profile and clicked INSTALL.  So the ICC profile is installed in windows.  When I add a Soft Proof adjustment layer,  AP freezes.  I have to close it down.  Once AP did put a Soft Proof Adjustment layer, but when I clicked to open it, AP freezes.  I'm not able to soft proof the image.
