NIK Viveza crashes

[MikeBack]

Hi,

I have the NIK collection loaded on my MacPro.  All of the NIK programs work except Viveza.  After I make my image adjustments and hit "OK", Viveza crashes.   Very frustrating.  Is there a fix for this?

Thanks

I have it installed a plugin.  All the other NIK application plugins work, so I'm not sure what is causing Viveza to fail.

I have Viveza 2 (an old version of Nik from Google) on Catalina. It crashes as a standalone program for me when I click save, however the changes are applied.

I have the same version of Viveza & also run Catalina. I don't use the stand alone app often but from what I can tell it does not crash on Save; it just quits normally after saving the file. I am not sure but I think that is how it is designed to work.

It is not a very Mac-like app -- there is no Open, View, or any other menu besides a very short Viveza 2 one that has just About, Preferences, & Quit items; plus a Help menu that no longer opens anything besides an "Oops!" webpage at DXO. I can't drag & drop anything into its window to open it but I can drop a file on its Dock icon to do that, or use the right-click Open with option in Finder.

In fact, all the old Google stand alone apps are like that -- each of them closes/quits on Save or Cancel.

I never had this issue when I used the old version of Nik Collection as a plugin in CS6.  I like Affinity, but I am not sure if this Viveza bug is a problem with the Affinity Photo platform or whether it is a NIK issue?  The other NIK applications function fine, so I am at a lost on how to fix the Viveza issue.
