Using the direct "pointing"  to C:\Users\pat\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WindowsApps\AffinityPhoto2.exe shiwed this - even when logged in as Admin

Probably because ..WindowsApps is a system folder

I then tried the following 

"Use a helper .bat file:

start /b affinityphoto2.exe %1
exit
I named mine LaunchAffinityPhoto2.bat and saved it. Then I point to that bat file from the other programs that need to invoke Photo 2."

From Lightroom 6 it invokes Photo 2 but crashes photo 

 

Clearly a bug in Affinity Photo since what worked before fails now because of the new way that Photo gets installed.

I'll ask for a refund until it gets fixed I cannot work this way, the extras aint worth the effort of locating the file from Photo 2 editing and saving then back into Lightroom to import for cataloguing.

Of course if Affinity cam up with DAM...

It's a bug in Lightroom failing to launch our application, however, I've written an aflaunch app which can work around the problem. Please see here:
