Recently can't start any of the apps. W11 updated their .Net 4.8 & 5 framework, might have something to do with it. I Also updated my gpu driver. Also tried the disable Hardware Acceleration trick, didn't help.

Attaching a dumpfile

Hi @BacMan12,

Sorry to hear you're having trouble!

Your crash report seems to indicate that Razer Cortex is responsible for this issue - can you please try fulling disabling this service (or uninstalling it), then try relaunching the Affinity app once again. Does this stop the crashing for you please? :)

I uninstalled it and restarted my system, did not fix the problem :(

Not using the dev version no, just the normal consumer one

Many thanks for trying this and I'm sorry to hear it!

Could you please provide an updated crash report from after this app was uninstalled? :)

Many thanks for your provided file! Our team has asked if you can generate one more crash report, after editing your Affinity app config file.

Please see the below link where instructions are provided by a colleague of mine - 

Once this new crash report has been generated, please attach this here once again for me - thanks for your continued patience and understanding :)

Hi and welcome to the forums.

Please try with deactivated hardware acceleration. Edit -> Preferences -> Performance. If this doesn't help maybe there are defective Windows system or .NET components. To check this press Windows key + X, choose CMD (Administrator) from the list. Type sfc /scannow and press Enter.

Can you tell more about your hardware (e.g. CPU, Mainboard)?

Your system should even be able to handle hardware acceleration well.

Maybe downscaling the monitor frequency from 240 Hz down to 60 Hz can help.

Sad to read this. Maybe a Serif support stuff member can read more from the dump file.

Apologies for the delayed response @BacMan12!

I can see the following from your DXdiag file -

Colour Profile - It appears as though your monitor has a custom colour profile set through Windows, which is likely the cause of this crash. Please open Windows Run (Windows Key + R) then paste the following string and press OK:

colorcpl

In the window that opens, please select the Devices tab, then select your monitor from the dropdown list. You should find that 'use my settings for this device' is enabled, but if not please tick this option.

Now, take a screenshot of your settings and attach this here for me, this should look similar to the following:

image.png

Windows Version Number - I'm not 100% certain if this is caused by upgrading from an Insider build to the regular updates, however your DXdiag seems to indicate you are using build '(22000.co_release.210604-1628)' which has conflicting reports when searching Google. Can you please double check that you have no Windows updates waiting? I believe version 10.0.22000.318 is the latest.

Windows 11 N - the version of Windows you have installed does not include the 'media pack', which isn't explicitly required for Affinity, but may be causing this crashing as we haven't officially tested Windows 11 N & Affinity as of yet. I'd recommend trying to install this on your system, using the following steps:

On Windows 11 N, Select the Start button, then select Settings > Apps > Optional features. Select View features next to Add an optional feature, and then select the Media Feature Pack in the list of available optional features.

Please do let me know how you get on :)

Okay did that for all my monitors, they should look the same.

I did try to opt into the beta to see if it fixed my problem, that might be why. Or my windows update is broken and i'm missing updates.

Already had it installed, because a lot of stuff doesn't work without it. But i uninstalled it restarted and installed it again

Affinity apps are still not starting

Update: Might have fixed my problem with changing TPM to Discrete from Firmware in the BIOS. Now i suddenly have an Windows Update

Edit: Nevermind, that did not help
If I troubleshoot Windows Update i do get a "problem found" But it doesn't fix it
