CBIweb Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 Affinity Photo v1.10.6.1665 Windows 10 64-bit Home, fully updated. I'm not sure if anyone can help with this but I have to inquire: I recently reinstalled Windows 10, and before I did that, Affinity Photo was working perfectly. After the reinstall, it is very slow to launch, and when working with photos it's slow with everything I do. One example: when rotating a photo, it takes a good 20-30 seconds for it to move when I drag a corner. Another example: when there are multiple photos open, it takes 10 or more seconds to change from one to the other, whether I click the tab or use ctrl+Tab. I'm just wondering if there's anything I can check that might be making it behave this way. The computer runs fine, it's just Affinity that's effected. This computer won't support Windows 11, and I can't afford to upgrade Affinity to v2 (in case that crosses your mind. )
wusup Posted May 5, 2024 Posted May 5, 2024 Take a look in Affinity Photo Settings and see if Hardware Acceleration is enabled (Edit > Settings > Performance). If Hardware Acceleration is enabled, disable it and see if that fixes things. CBIweb 1 Affinity Designer/Photo/Publisher 2 (MSI/EXE)

If Hardware Acceleration is enabled, disable it and see if that fixes things. That's exactly what fixed it. Thank you! 👍 wusup 1
