After downloading Affinity and attempting to open and follow the steps to enter/paste the product key, I keep getting this message: For security and performance, Windows 10 in S mode runs Mirosoft-verifited apps. I thought this app was compatible with S mode.

Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for any helpful tips.

In S mode, applications can only be installed from the Microsoft Store, where Affinity applications can be purchased. If you have just purchased the applications in the Affinity Store, you can try to return them (refund) within 14 days.

Alternatively, you could upgrade to full Windows.  This is a one way street though - you can't go back to S mode if you change your mind.

Serif offers a ‘no quibble’ money-back guarantee, so if you apply for a refund with the time limit the question of trying shouldn’t arise.
