'Quitting' dialog when attempting to close the program

[Alfred]

When I tried to close the program a few minutes ago, I got this dialog:

 

 

Manually closing each open document didn't help. I had to resort to using the Windows Task Manager.

Yes, I reported this issue in this thread:

Hi Alfred,

This message appears when there's a file that's still loading (opening) and you try to close the app.

Probably you have opened a document that didn't load/opened properly and Affinity was still trying to opening it when you closed the app.

If you find the file causing this it may worth to take a look at it to discover why it doesn't open/load properly.

Hi, as MEB says, this is probably caused by attempting to open a document which fails, which Affinity then thinks is still loading as you try to close the app. Do you remember what files you had recently opened?

Sorry I didn't get back to this thread the other day. I don't think I remembered anything about recently opened files then, and I certainly don't remember now!

I've now fixed this issue, it was caused by attempting to load a PDF which then fails (and Designer still thinks it's trying to load it when it closes). The fix will be in the next build.
