Hi,

Then I have decided describe my problem by email. I have installed trial version of Affinity Photo 1.8.3.641. I have decided buy full version. I was somehow redirected to the Microsoft Store. I continued and I paid. I was expecting that product key will be delivered to me for unlock full version. But I cannot find product key anywhere, neither in the mail nor in the Microsoft Store.
 
Can you give me some advice?
 
Thank you

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, Radomir. :)

Affinity apps purchased from the Microsoft Store are tied to your Microsoft account, so they do not need (and therefore do not have) product keys.

Possibly as a result of your system settings? The FAQ article below talks about that. But now that you've paid, you have the product, and as Alfred noted you do not get or need a product key when you purchase via the Microsoft Store.

Alfred, thank you for your answer. How I can use my purchased Affinity Photo on MS Store?  If I ask MS support,  I get one and only answer: "Affinity Photo is not Microsoft produkt, contakt Affinity support".

Can anyone adwise me.

Thank you

I think you should first uninstall the Trial version.  Then go to your account on the M$ Store, where Affinity Photo should be showing as "purchased".  Download and install it.  As previously explained, you do not need any licence key since the product is now linked to your M$ Store account.

Uninstall the trial version and install from the Microsoft App store.
