Look at the Windows tech specs section here: https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/photo/full-feature-list/

As indicated on the linked page, Affinity Photo can indeed run on Windows 7, but only with Service Pack 1 (SP1) and the Platform Update installed, and with Aero enabled.

And (after 1.9) if you have KB447419 and possibly KB4490628 installed, per this FAQ:

Only if bought from the Affinity Store.

The Microsoft Store version of each of the Affinity apps requires Windows 10 version 14393.0 or higher.

Do you see any apps for sale there that don't say "Windows 10" as part of their system requirements?

OK, everyone - have a nice evening. I have better things to do than be used as a dartboard.
