Bertm Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 I have Affinity Designer version 1.6.1 and edited a file in Affinity Photo 1.7.1 then saved file in Photo. When attempting to open saved file back in Designer I received this message: The file version is not supported by this version of Affinity. Suggestions please.

v_kyr Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Update the Designer version, probably the file formats have changed during the v1.6.1 to v.1.7.1 software migrations.

The file format did change - during the 1.7 beta there were warnings that the 1.7 format wasn't backwards compatible.

Staff Dan C Posted December 23, 2019 Staff Share Posted December 23, 2019 Hi Bertm, Welcome to the forums I can confirm the above is correct, the file format was updated between these versions making files opened in 1.7 or higher not editable in version 1.6. 9 hours ago, Bertm said: I have Affinity Designer version 1.6.1 Could you please confirm why you're still running this version of Designer? As it is almost 2 years old now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
