triforcesolutions Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Hi Mark, I have small tiny request - can you (in future maybe) put version name in every software-related filename? Like affinity-designer-customer-beta-1.6.3.101.exe?

Theophrastus Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 No Mark, nothing at all, just crashes by the first click. Trying to delete the user settings by starting with ctrl key it crashes as well, but with a reference, see screenshot.

Theophrastus Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 It's a Gaomon M106K. I'm having issues with Photoshop, pressure doesn't work, but there where no issues with Affinity Photo or Designer.

Check out @Gnobelix's post in the Photo forum to see whether his Huion fix might work for your Gaomon device: Theophrastus 1
Theophrastus Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Thank you Mark, seems to be the same problem. Followed Gnobelix solution, after uninstalling the driver the beta works fine. Reinstalled the driver the beta crashes again. When I disable the HID pen in the device manager the beta doesn't crash even with the Gaomon driver installed. Just figured out that AP, AD and even Photoshop don't work with the tablet any longer. Edit: I'm such an idiot: pen battery was down, that's why the pen didn't work in regular versions of AP and AD! So following Gnobelix' solution works fine with my system, disabling the HID pen helps and the beta doesn't crash any longer! Thank you very much for your help Mark Mark Ingram 1
