I am experiencing a crash immediately after trying to start the application. Splash screen goes away and process hangs. This is a fresh install of Affinity Designer 2 Event viewer is showing this exception from Designer.exe Application: Designer.exe Framework Version: v4.0.30319 Description: The process was terminated due to an unhandled exception.

I installed and registered my three new Version 2 programmes yesterday. I also had the chance to work with them, yesterday. This evening 11/11/22 I wanted to play a bit with them and they do not initialize. They do not load fully.

I'm a bit embarrassed to post that, but here it goes... Is there a chance to have a splash screen that doesn't feature a woman? Or at least, the option to disable/ make a custom splash screen? I'm religious, so the AP splash screen - which features a woman - is kind of problematic for me personally. I'll be super happy to see that happening, But I'll understand if it won't :) Thanks.

Hello! Thank you Affinity for making this great application! Both its capability and price are excellent. I do wish to ask whether if there is a way to disable the start up splash screen whenever Affinity Photo is launched. This is not the project sample panel that is being referred where you can download all kinds of projects, however it is the very first image that appears when the program is launched. Thank you!

i've downloaded affinity and re install 2 times it's still not starting up it closes on splash screen on window 10 64bit
