Hi,

Affinity Photo Windows Customer Beta - 1.8.0.486 is very slow starting.

it needs nearly 50 econds to start, while version 1.7.3.481 only needs 4 seconds.

System:

Windows 10 Pro 1903 with all updates

Samsung 970 EVO NVMe M.2 SSD - 500 GB

Intel Core i7 7700k

32 GB RAM

NVIDI GTX1070

At my PC both versions 1.7.3.481 and 1.8.0.486 starting similar amount of time from HDD - appr. 13 seconds. Maybe it is due to some custom settings in beta?

The beta does start up slower as we perform more diagnostics.

On my system retail .481 takes 4 seconds and beta .486 takes 5 seconds. Not a big difference, but 50 secs.... that's not normal.

OK, this makes sense 
i believe the "hardest part" is where the fonts are being loaded, but i don`t have installed any extra fonts.

I have almost 2000 fonts installed - feel no much difference in startup time, hmm.

Thanks for your answer Manofjesus.

i thought i`m not the only one with this problem so i will wait for the final version

I just think, it could be any reason, not fonts only )))
