Frink Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Hi! Just downloaded the Demo, just wantet to know why I need to switch to an Aero desktop? This means changing my whole worspace... I'd like to keep my oldschool Win2000 lookalike Desktop. Is there a possibility to get Affinity running without the Aero Desktop? THX & Greetings!

JFisher Posted October 13, 2017 Share Posted October 13, 2017 Hi Frink, Welcome to the forum Aero needs to be enabled to use Affinity apps, click Start > Control Panel > Personalisation, choose one of the Windows Aero themes. It might be worth taking a look at this thread for more information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frink Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Hey & thx for the Link! Finally I found a simple solution there.... It is possible to run Affinity without the Win AERO-Dsign you just have to start it with an Option: "C:\Program Files\Affinity\Affinity Photo\Photo.exe" "--no-dwm-warning" BTW: From my viewpoint it is stupid not to give users this option in a Dialog when installing. Many users will just give up and thats a pitty... With a fast mashine Affinity is runing fine - even without the AERO Crap... Best!
