I had a complicated file created in Affinity Photo that I'd like to recover, if possible. When I opened the file it prompted me to recover an unsaved version of this file. I stupidly said "no thanks" before realizing that I should have said Yes. 

Silly me. 

So, I know there is a recovery file (unless it was deleted when I answered no). Another post suggested looking in User > AppData>Roaming>Affinity>Photo but there are only files there for version 1. 

 

Any suggestions?

It should have been deleted when you answered "no".

Where they are for version 2 will depend on whether you installed using the MSI/EXE version of the installer or the MSIX version of the installer.

For the MSI/EXE I would expect them to be almost in that location, but in a subfolder: %APPDATA%\affinity\photo\2.0\autosave

For MSIX, I would expect them to be in %USERPROFILE%\.affinity\Photo\2.0\autosave
