I have been using Affinity without incident for many months. Suddenly today it won't open. The splash screen shows, but it hangs there and never opens. Affinity Designer opens without incident. Any thoughts? I am clueless as to what could have changed. 

I am using Affinity 1.7.3 (is there an update I overlooked?)

I have 2TB. See system details in attachment.

You could try

Launch the app with (ctrl) held down until a Clear User Data dialog appears. Press the Select All button then press the Clear button. Note this will reset everything to app defaults - user preferences, palettes, macros, everything. If you want to reset just the UI and user prefs leave just the first three checkboxes ticked and press the Clear button.

If that does not work... Is it not possible to launch the program from a terminal window in OS X ... without too much hassle? Photo could return a meaningful error message in the terminal.

Hi iambia,

Please let me know if first defence's suggestion doesn't work I should have a few other things we can try.

Thanks
