Affinity Photo crashes at every first opening an image


Recommended Posts

1.8.3.641 - WIN 10 latested updates - clean new reset of PC and therefore new installation of Affinity Photo.

NVIDIA GTX 650 - newest driver 446.14

EIZO CS 2730

Also installed: Affinity Designer 1.83.641 + Affitity Publisher 1.83.641 and Capture One 13.1.0.162  (all downloaded today).

---------

Hello, I'm new to the forum and didn't really find a similar problem description on Google. Therefore I'll ask here:

When I open an image in Affinity Photo for the very first time via "File -> Open..." it often instantly crashes. When I retry with the same file at the same source there is no problem anymore.

I first thought it had something to do with the fact, that the images are on a OneDrive directory (already downloaded before), but now, on my new clean system, it also crashed 2 times with local only images. 

Now, after approx. 10-15 tries with other files and sources, it works well. But I am afraid it will happen again when I do not expect it.

I use DNG from Ricoh GR 3 and CR2 from Canon EOS 6.

Strangley enough a have the same behaviour on my iPad Air 3 with the latest Affinity Photo App when I use "Import from cloud" and open files from OneDrive.

Does anyone have an idea what can be the reason?

I have not experienced such a behaviour in version under 1.83.

Thank you very much in advanced. Best regards.

Hello,

Update from myself: same behaviour this morning: Opened a CR2. Picture appears and shortly after that Affinity Photo closed itself without any error message.

The second opening worked well. But after I pushed "Develop", to change into the Photo Persona it instantly crashed again. That happend twice in a row. 

Affinity Photo also created a crash reports (*dmp), but I can not read it. 

Tried it with older version 1.8.2 but unfortunately it also crashes.

Tried out with older version.

This could be related to a colour profile being broken/corrupt. 

Can you go into Windows Colour Management and disable 'Use my settings for this device' and also see if setting to sRGB works.

They can be found in:

%AppData%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports

or 

%AppData%\Affinity\Photo\1.0 (Store)\CrashReports
