mthorner Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 On Win 11 my latest installed versions of Publisher and Designer 2.3.1 do not show "Open Recent" files. Photo 2.3.1 works. Is there a setting somewhere, I miss? Quote
bbrother Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 What are you referring to? File → Open Recent in the menu bar, or the Recent tab in the New Document dialog I don't see any problems with any of them in Windows 10. Quote
walt.farrell Posted January 13, 2024 Posted January 13, 2024 And I don't have any problems with them on Win 11. @mthorner: No, there's no setting. But please clarify what you mean. I wonder, for example, if you're talking about within the application or popups from a Taskbar icon? If it's from the Taskbar icon, my guess would be that you have the EXE/MSI version of Photo installed, but the MSIX version of Publisher and Designer, which is not a good configuration to use.

mthorner Posted January 13, 2024 Author Posted January 13, 2024 Yes, I am referring to the simple File-Open Recent. Today, I uninstalled all three apps and reinstalled their fresh MSIX 2.3.1 versions. Same strange behavior: In Photo the File-Open Recent works, while in Publisher and Designer it doesn't. By the way, both Publisher and Designer do not switch language either. I have the feeling, that both apps reset everything to their default and do no longer work with stored settings. Could eventually my parallel Photo Beta 2.4 installation be the issue? I cannot delete it, because I already edited several images with it, and there seems to be not backward compatibility. Quote

Betas are installed as separete apps. If I were you, I would uninstall the MSIX versions and try the EXE/MSI versions. Quote

I don't understand what you mean there. What language do you have specified in the application Settings, General (at the bottom)?

mthorner Posted January 13, 2024 Author Posted January 13, 2024 YES, it worked. Thank you bbrother. I uninstalled everything from Affinity on my machine and deleted all folders with this name. Installing the three EXE worked. Quote
