Gilly Rogers Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Hi, Can someone help me please. Designer crashed on me earlier when I was dragging one of my own assets from my own asset category. Now all the Assets I have imported have disappeared from the panel. Thats not a problem as all of those I have downloaded I can just re-import. However, the problem is with the assetts that I have created. Where is that file stored so I can import them back into Designer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilly Rogers Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 Ok so I think ive fund the answer. To restore "C:\Users\"User being me"\AppData\Roaming\Affinity\Designer\1.0\user\assets.propcol" from a backup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. Yes, if you have a recent-enough backup of that file, restoring it should work. Alternatively, you could import assets again from original .afassets files you may have, or may have exported as backups.

I am not Walt (obviously!) but you can delete that category if you want. Just select it in the Assets panel, click on the 'burger' menu at the top right of the panel & select "Delete Category" in the menu that pops up.

walt.farrell Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 You should be able to delete them, and you can certainly try. But I got a Designer hang (and eventual crash) when I tried it, so make sure you've still got that backup copy of assets.propcol just in case. With the category selected in the Assets panel, click on the hamburger menu and choose Delete Category: Edit: After restarting Designer, the Assets were still OK, and I was able to delete iOS 12 without incident.

Gilly Rogers Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 Thank you gentlemen 😀 I'll give it a whirl, I got my own back ok with the restore. Just got a few to add from the image files I made in-between the last back up and the crash which won't take long to do. 😀 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
