Can't find licence.xml file

[cgw]

I would like to deactivate the Affinity Photo 1.8 on a laptop so I can hand it to another AP user who would then enter his own registration details.  I have found various previous posts on a similar theme that suggest deleting the licence.xml file in the hidden directory  C:\ProgramData\Affinity\Photo\1.0.  In File Explorer but all this has are two further empty subfolders for lensprofiles and plugins.

Thanks in advance for any help, 

Chris

Hi cgw,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
You can find the license here: C:\ProgramData\Affinity\{APPNAME}\1.0\licence.xml or C:\Program Files\Affinity\{APPNAME}\licence.xml

Hi,

As I said in my post, there is nothing in that folder for Photo!  However after some more searching, I have found the licence located in C:\Program Files\Affinity\Affinity Photo\licence.xml

I presume it was moved when v1.8 was brought out.  For Designer, it is where you mentioned but I can't find Publisher's licence anywhere.

Regards,

Chris

Note that MEB gave you 2 folders to look in. ProgramData (where you found nothing) and Program Files (where you found it, though in a slightly different subdirectory name).

For Publisher, I think you'll always find it in the ProgramData version, if you purchased directly from Serif, as you'll see on my Windows copy:

(If you did not purchase from Serif, your license is tied to your Microsoft Store account, and you would not have that file.)
