Alfred Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Trying stupid stuff, I discovered that designer.exe doesn't like long strings as parameter As you say later, it isn't just long strings. I tried Designer.exe /? when Designer was already running, and it crashed. 1. start cmd.exe 2. change directory to AD-Directory Or perhaps a little easier, open your %ProgramFiles%\Affinity folder in an Explorer window, Shift+right-click on the Affinity Designer Public Beta folder, and choose 'Open command window here' from the context menu.
