Affinity Publisher 1.10.6 not opening on Windows 11

[mr.fervor]

Hi everyone!

1. Installed Affinity Publisher 1.10.6 on Windows 11
2. Run the application 
3. The main window of the application opens, then immediately closes down. 
4. I can see that there is a task in the task manager when I run the app. Then it ends. 
5. Have uninstalled the app
6. Updated windows
7. Installed the app
8. The issue persists

My laptop system specs are in the screenshot. The app runs fine on my laptop with Windows 10 Pro.

In the Windows Run dialogue please copy and paste the following and click OK and this will start Affinity Publisher with the OpenCL option disabled and please let me know if Publisher still has issues opening.

C:\Program Files\Affinity\Affinity Publisher\Publisher.exe --no-ocl

Thank you for the solution, DWright!

It worked to start the app this way. Is this something that I have to do every time now?

NO, as it should have altered the APub performance settings, for not using OpenCL hardware acceleration, permanantly accordingly now.
