Been waiting for so long. And I see no news at all. What new features will we get next?

My wife and I both have Designer. I purchased mine through Affinity. She purchased through the Mac App Store. My version is up to date. Her version is 10.7 and does not update if I open from App Store. I sent her a file to work on that will not open because her version is older. What should we do? Also, when I log into the Affinity store, I can not find my purchase under download and keys. I do see it under registered apps but not under orders. Help

hey all! I have a quite urgent question: Today I opened mit afpub file and was surprised that all the linked documents that I have edited many times in publisher are suddenly being overwritten with the original linked documents (all editing gone). This happens a few seconds after opening the file. So in the first seconds you can still see all the edited documents but they are being replaced with the "old" version soon. Is there any way I can stop the replacing with the original documents and keep mit edited ones? 🥺 I still have hope because during the first seconds the edited documents are still visible. but I don't know how to keep them... This has never opened before. I have worked several days on that file and this has never happened before but I have a deadline today... THANK YOU IMG_5840.MOV

I am running W10 on my laptop and my desktop. Desktop updated properly but my laptop must have a conflict as it just fails to run the update. I tried running the update as administrator figuring all of the normal junk that loads might introduce a conflict. Still no go. I have run out of ideas other than tossing the program and seeing if it will load as new from Serif. Any ideas?

Hello, I am on Windows 10 Home. All three applications have been installed to C:\Program Files\Affinity\ and were then moved to S:\Program Files\Affinity\ After that, C:\Program Files\Affinity\ has been deleted and replaced with a SYMLINK to S:\Program Files\Affinity\. Yesterday I updated Designer to the latest version. The installer first detected the installed program, deleted it, then deleted the SYMLINK and created a folder Affinity in C:\Program Files\. I then did the move again and relinked the folder, this time using a JUNCTION. Today I installed Photo and Publisher, the same thing happened, the JUNCTION got replaced with a physical folder Affinity in C:\Program Files\, though, the Application was found in S:\Program Files\Affinity before update, since it has been deleted from that folder. The report is true for all three applications, Photo, Designer and Publisher. Thanks and greets, Andreas
