[RANT}I just installed a patch for Corel PSP and they have it so it installs and you cannot save it.. Easily fixed by having the appdata/.temp folder open and copying it out before pressing the install button. After the install it trashes the temp folder Silly and pointless. Easier to just get the file and have it to install whenever [\RANT] Again thanks!

Kiarian Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Many thanks for the update, and the free content. Very happy with this. Just to report, an error message when trying to unzip the 'frankentoon-texturizerpro-brushes' file. I can drag everything to where I want it, apart from the 'QuickStart_Guide.pdf'. I'm getting the error: 1 Headers Error : QuickStart_Guide.pdf Even when I try to just drag the file to my desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherbakov Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Just now, MEB said: Hi Sherbakov, Run Affinity Photo. You should receive a notification telling you that there's an update available along with a download button. Click download to be directed to a webpage from where you can download the installer. That is a problem: i click download and just nothing happens. May be i need to wait. I am eager to install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
