Qwerty Posted March 9, 2020 Posted March 9, 2020 Hi, I can no longer open 'Photo'. When I click to open all I get is a message to select an Aero Theme. When I go to change theme in control panel I cannot change to an Aero theme, I have tried all the help sites with no avail can anyone help? I am using Windows 7 But Photo has always opened 'till now. Many Thanks Quote
Staff stokerg Posted March 11, 2020 Staff Posted March 11, 2020 Hi Qwerty, Do you get an error when trying to select an Aero theme? You can run the Affinity apps without Aero as outlined on this post Quote
Qwerty Posted March 11, 2020 Author Posted March 11, 2020 Did not work, but thanks for your help. I did not get an error when trying to select an Aero theme all themes are just 'greyed out' . None of the other themes work either. Where should the app be, I downloaded it from my downloads file. I am sorry to be a 'numpty' but I don't want to go back to Photoshop as I am getting used to 'PHOTO' Quote

The downloaded installer file would be wherever you (or your browser) stored it. Probably, if your browser did it automatically, in your Downloads folder. The installed application would be wherever you installed it. By default, c:\program files\affinity\photo or possibly c:\program files\affinity\affinity photo Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.
