Publisher 1.9.0 & 1.9.1 crashes open old files

[Ballshamin]

Excuse me, buy I don't write/speak English very well...

So far I have been working with the registered version of Publisher 1.8.5 without problems on Windows 10 20H2.

After a weeks without using the program, today it tells me that there is a new version, the 1.9.1 that I download. The new version starts perfectly, but when opening any file created with the previous version it crashes. It doesn't show any information, simply window close.

I have tried to disable OpenCL from the program preferences, but nothing changes. The folder containing the error reports "%AppData%\Roaming\Affinity\Publisher\1.0\CrashReports\reports" is empty.

I have return to 1.8.5 version and it load this files without problems.

Greetings again...

I have tried installing both versions of the program on a newly installed Windows 10 virtual machine and the problem reoccurs. I don't understand why when opening a file created with version 1.8.5 the new versions simply close without providing any kind of feedback on what is happening ...

Could you upload one of the files here please

Sorry, but these are private documents.

When I studied in university, the professors always said us that you always had to provide some kind of feedback to the user when time consuming processes were running o when an error occurred.

Windows 10 and many current applications seem to forget this: long waiting times with unchanged screens, without knowing what happens, or programs that end suddenly, without giving any kind of explanation.
