Wont open until it finds a network share?

[safoster71]

Greetings!

Photo and Designer have developed an interesting issue for me.  When i leave my home network they refuse to open for an extended period of time and then give me a error (see attached) not being able to connect to a machine on my home network.  They INSIST on connecting, and wont open at all until they do.   Not sure why they insist on this computer, as i rarely use it in conjunction with photo.  Help?

That's what i've reported here. You should have any file in the recents stored there.

Hi @safoster71,

This is something we are aware of, there's been some recent changes in this area so this should hopefully be better in the next build we make available.

Thanks for the report

just to let you know, i killed the preferences and the behavior continued.  I replaced the application straight from a new download and the behavior continues.  Must be some other place it stores settings?

If you delete the MRU.dat file stored in  /Users/username/Library/Application Support/appname/ then hopefully that should fix it for you

I have the same issue. My NAS sleeps when not in use and I wake it up manually.

When a file from the network share is within the recently used files I can't open the Affinity apps.
