akaDuffy Posted October 16, 2020 Posted October 16, 2020 Before anyone says so, yes. I understand that copy and pasting transparent PNGs on Mac works perfectly, and not so on Windows. However, while I could never paste PNGs into Photoshop without getting that black background problem, after getting Affinity Designer, I suddenly could paste PNGs and get the same result as on Mac. And I was ECSTATIC! It's why I upgraded from the free trial in the first place. Yesterday, Windows insisted that I run the Windows update that I had been putting off for a while. And after the update was over, pasting PNGs from the browser resulted in the transparent parts being replaced with black. This wasn't happening two days ago. And I hate that it's happening now. Please help!

And after the update was over, pasting PNGs from the browser resulted in the transparent parts being replaced with black. As far as I know, the Windows update should not have affected this - but I suppose it's possible with the latest changes to Windows Clipboard Management. Can you please provide a link to the image you're copy and pasting into Affinity, that brings in a black background? Can you also please confirm, what web browser are you using on Windows? Many thanks in advance!
