Hi @Erik M,

Welcome to the Affinity Forums

Sorry to hear you're experiencing crashing - in order for our team to investigate further, we're going to need to see a full copy of the crash report above.

Can you please follow the below FAQ and provide a copy of the full report for me?

Many thanks in advance!

Hi @Dan C,

Attached you will find 2 Crash reports from today. It seems that old crash reports are not present in the same folder, there should otherwise have been a handfull.
I hope the attached 2 will help you conclude on the root cause for the constant crashes.
