I was having issues with slow windows start up and Affinity Photo giving me constant " not responding " messages.

Once Windows finally started completely all my other programs worked fine. Lightroom, krita, etc, but Affinity Photo was unusable! I decided to replace my spinning hard drive with a new SSD drive and install a clean windows 10. Laptop works great now and I scaled back my programs to just Lightroom and Affinity Photo. 

Computer starts up and is ready to go in about a minute and Lightroom is super fast, but Affinity Photo continually hangs up with the " not responding" message.  What could be the issue?

Thanks,

Hi @gmckay60,

Can you try opening Affinity and click Edit>Preferences>Performance and at the bottom of this window is an option for OpenCL, if that's ticked, untick it and close Preferences and you'll be asked to restart Affinity.  Once restarted, try using the app again and let me know the results.
