Crash caused loss of all Assets


Recommended Posts

I frequently import and export Assets files as I use Photo for scrapbooking.  I often get a white line along the top of the screen and "not responding" which eventually sorts itself out and I can carry on.  Since the update a couple of weeks' ago not only have I had the "not responding" message but a crash of Photo.  Tonight I was deleting some Assets files from the panel and Photo crashed.  All Assets have been deleted.  I can't get them back from the Affinity shop because I've already downloaded them once.  Luckily I had created them into an Asset file in case this happened.  However, I thought I should report the problem anyway.

Hi @Canterslowly Sorry to hear you have experienced crashing and your Assets were somehow removed.

Can you upload a video of the issue where you experience the while line and the "not responding". It would be helpful to see the kinds of situations where this happens and the steps to reproduce it. I'd like to try and recreate this issue to see if I can get it to delete Assets too.

I tried to upload videos yesterday but they were stuck in a queue for ages.  I tried using Gamebar to video but it didn't capture the dropdowns or the bar across the top which signifies the not responding message.  I may have to just set up my phone on a tripod and do it that way - unless you can suggest recording software that I could download (I could do with some anyway).

Hi, thank you again for responding.  I've got a number of videos for you (if they upload this time).  Photo and Designer both were unresponsive, although I caused one of the Designer examples because I clicked on for a New File while the Asset was loading. I had to use Ctrl+Alt-Del on one occasion because it was stuck in a loop.   Publisher was OK - I'm not sure if it has actually had the unresponsive problem that I've noticed but I haven't used it much yet.

Oh, I also have the file sizes for the asset files I was using, that may help.

Publisher was the only program that didn't go into "not responding" - until I'd finished videoing then it did it 4 times in a row.

None of the programs crashed totally or lost Assets through crashing.  So far, that's only happened once and the assets loaded through the Affinity updates were lost as well as my own.  (As mentioned I do have backups).

That tells that it crashed in the libraster.dll library due to an read access exception ...

Which version of Affinity Photo is used? - Try out the latest beta version, it may have already fixed this issue.
