Hwayke Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 After saving work in between the workflow with Affinity and save after done with the edits caused a loss of access to the file. See attached file. Actually I had the same problem with the v1. Work around is to rename the file every time when you want to save in between. My working environment is the latest MAC OS.

Hwayke Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 I saved it now directly on the root directory and have no problems anymore. So saving it on an external drive (exfat formatted) caused the problem Paul Mudditt 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarvinR Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 If you search the forum using the word Ventura you will see a report and a confirmation that this is a problem unique to that Mac OS. You may want to read that and see if it is the same as the problem you are experiencing. Since you say you are using the latest Mac OS that may be the problem you are experiencing. Hope this helps. Update: See you were typing at the same time I was. Glad you found the workaround Peace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you only use the drive on a Mac and do not use on WIndows use a native macOS format like APFS. If you do use with Windows, format the drive on your Mac to exFAT, do not format to exFAT on Windows as they don’t do it correctly.
