walt.farrell Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 The only active beta is for V2, and you would need to have a license for the retail V2 version to use it. It's not usable if you only have. V1 license. If you have a V2 license, then you can join the V2 beta here: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/affinity-beta-program/ Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

debraspicher Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 Your beta account would be your standard login to activate all your affinity stuff. But, the beta is only for V2. So you would have to have retail V2 in your account to be able to activate the beta. Quote

Frozen Death Knight Posted November 8, 2023 Posted November 8, 2023 38 minutes ago, Jacq22 said: This beta replay question from serif is from a v1 version .. ?? What to do ..?? Buying V2 would likely grant you Beta access. However, since you're still on V1 my guess is that you have your reasons for not upgrading, so you shouldn't feel forced to buy it if you don't want to. They are only open Betas, so there are many people who are reporting bugs already. If your bug is about V1, then go to this subforum section and write your report there. V1 as of now is no longer being actively developed, but if there are regression bugs because of OS changes they will of course respond and make changes. There is a 1.10.8 patch in the works as we speak. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/forum/120-reports-of-bugs-in-affinity-version-1-applications/ Quote

Are you saying you're trying to install a V1 beta? My first question would be "why?" since there is no active V1 beta. Next would be, where did you purchase and install V1 from, and what V1 release do you have installed, and what OS?

PaulEC Posted November 9, 2023 Posted November 9, 2023 The v1 beta is no longer available, you might still have an old link, but you can no longer download and use it. You cannot use the v2 beta unless you have bought the v2 release version. Beta versions are not free alternatives to the release versions, they are only intended (for users who have already purchased the software) to test it before a new version of the software is released. Beta versions are only available for a limited time, and usually expire when the next release version is available. You can download a free 30 day trial of Affinity v2. If you have a problem with v1 it might help if you told us what it is!
