Pšenda Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Some applications are usually installed certain parts into OS system space, ie on the disk C:. I recommend that you make enough free space here.

emmrecs01 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 @SoeshieMedia Welcome to the Affinity forums. Although I am running the purchased versions of all the Affinity apps and not the Trial versions, all are successfully installed on my D:\ drive so there is no absolute requirement in them to always use C:\. So, perhaps there is some limitation deliberately built into the trial versions to force the install to C:\? However, I would be very surprised if that were the case.

However, I would be very surprised if that were the case. I would be very surprised, too, especially since the trial download is a time-limited full version which can be converted simply by entering a valid product key (i.e. there is no need for a separate download).

Probably you would find some amount of space taken up in the ProgramData holder on C, and in your AppData folder on C, too. Also, for installation purposes: the Temp directory is usually on C, and that's where the program files will be decompressed before they're installed to their final location.
