Focus Merge crashes when using Nvidia graphics card

Probably Mark Ingram suspects this problem:

Unfortunately, I am not familiar with Lenovo. But before any more BIOS tricks are done, I would still try with Windows on-board tools.

@Mark Ingram Thanks for pointing me towards Capture One. I checked the following threads.

1.9.0.932 crashes while using GPU render - Photo Bugs found on Windows - Affinity | Forum (serif.com)

CO 20 - Windows explorer integration – Capture One

I don't use windows integration in capture one. It is disabled for me.

I went ahead and renamed the file C:\Program Files\Capture One\Capture One 21\WIC\WIC64\P1.WIC.NativeComWrapper.dll to P1.WIC.NativeComWrapper.backup.dll. I can confirm that Affinity doesn't crash anymore.

Congratulations!!

Thanks @sapstar, that's an additional problem with Capture One - the checkbox never enables (even if you tick it).

Yes. I saw that in the capture one forums. It's not something I use anyway. For now this solution works :).

@Mark Ingram looks like this issue has been resolved in the latest Capture One release. I am able to do focus merge in affinity without renaming the dll.
