gw_westdale Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 Trying to install the new Version 2 MSIX - as an individual user I am not as concerned about the switch to App format as many organisations will be. However, I cannot install on Windows 11 ( updated this morning ) - double click on the MSIX gives message "The specified procedure cannot be found" I have not seen this issue mentioned by anyone else so could do with advice.# thanks Quote Win 11 PCs 64bit Envy and Envy tablet + Filter Forge Retired computer systems tester doing graphics for charities and politics etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlainP Posted November 13, 2022 Share Posted November 13, 2022 This usually an error in Windows, not the app. First thing to try would be running "SFC /scannow" in command in an elevated command prompt (administrator) and this could fix it. If it does not work, have a look HERE.

gw_westdale Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 Ran Scannow - thanks Alain - it found some issues and said it fixed them. However still had same error from the install - either double clicking on the msix or right clicking and running the installer app. As per other advice looked at installer logs - warnings given ...... !App manifest validation warning: Declared namespace http://schemas.microsoft.com/appx/manifest/virtualization/windows10 is inapplicable, it will be ignored during manifest processing." I assume this is causing the problem - does Affinity install call for this namespace - why would it be 'inapplicable' ?

gw_westdale Posted November 15, 2022 Author Share Posted November 15, 2022 Further, on reflection , did the obvious - rebooted the PC and the install is now under way - presume that the fixes from SFC needed to be loaded 'low' in the system. Thanks Alain.
