Thus a rule of thumb when using Affinity software is always, to better work I/O wise only on the local drive/disk with the Affinity software in order to prevent possible data lost and to use all external storages just as (like) a backup storage (drive). Meaning to manually copy files between the local working drive and external backup storage via system level file copy/move operations, before opening them in Affinity, instead of accessing external stored files directly from inside of an Affinity product.
