Stef16 Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 Hello, is it possible to install the designer without the msix file? My laptop has windows 8.5 and can't unzip the file with msix. Are there zip files to install possible? Quote

If you do already own it, you can find it in the Store you purchased it from (Affinity Store, or Microsoft Store) in your account there.

Affinity Rat Posted May 13, 2024 Posted May 13, 2024 Where did you buy it from? Go to the store where you bought version 1 for mac and download the PC version from there. Quote

If you didn’t purchase the V1 Windows app, it’s unfortunately no longer possible to buy it. With V2, the Universal License enables installation on Mac, Windows, and iPad.
