AP quits in Develop Persona

[Liber]

Hi, ... first, I am new with AP, congrats for a good good program, I wait for many features soon.

The problem, ...  when I am in Develop Persona, AP crash whitout warning, here what I am doing:

- I fix some settings like Exposure, Enhance, etc.

- Activate Split View

- Activate Swap, ... then crash

I have tested several times and the chance of crashing is like a 75%.

Thank

Hey Liber, welcome to the Affinity Forums.

I can't seem to reproduce this but I have a feeling I've seen it reported before but I cannot find an existing bug report.

Can you take a look inside your AppData folder for a crash please?

Affinity Store - Go to %AppData%\Affinity\Photo\1.0\CrashReports\reports

or 

Microsoft Store - Go to %AppData%\Affinity\Photo\1.0 (Store)\CrashReports\reports

You can acccess the AppData folder by pressing the Windows key + R on your keyboard and then just type %AppData%

Hi, I haven't had this problem again, maybe it was some memory problem or something like that.
Anyway, I have these three reports generated about the time I reported, I'm not sure which one it was, sorry,  I'll be more vigilant for the next time I have to report to include it.
Thanks

Thanks Liber, I'll take a look through those dump files. Feel free to wake up this thread if it happens again or you notice a pattern.

Annoyingly, there's nothing useful in those dump files  Not that I can see... I saw a reference to memory but nothing concrete so perhaps you're right.

Not so long ago, Walt made an interesting comment about drastically increasing virtual memory. I am not able to find that suggestion on the forum anymore. Personally, I benefited from that greatly, without even thanking him. So I'd like to do that now.

Perhaps this may help you too.

You're welcome, Peter.

If it was recent, perhaps this one (and later ones in that thread) dealing with Windows virtual storage size and the size/location of pagefile.sys:
